KS3 ICT

The Key Stage 3 IT curriculum starts off by giving the student the building blocks they need to utilise IT across the curriculum in all subjects. They are shown how to use the school ICT systems, including GMail and Google Docs, we then cover the ever important topic of E Safety followed by a range of software. In Year 8 we continue to build on this with a focus on communication and design, before bringing in computing units in Year 9.
