Computing
As technology continues to advance and change at an increasing rate; with new gadgets, websites, games and apps appearing daily. At White Ash school we aim to provide a curriculum that educates our learners not only to be safe whilst using such technologies but also how it can aid in learning and communicating.
Each year has curriculum areas that cover 3 key areas:
Digital Literacy
Computer Science
Information Technology
Skills are taught through discreet lessons and also cross curricular to meet the diverse needs of our learners and to show how technology around us can be a tool to support.

Swiggle is a child friendly and safe search engine that will reduce the risks of harmful content reaching your child. There is a hand button which allows the child to cover the screen should anything they should not or do not want to see pops up. This means they can then tell the closest adult who can support and report.
