🆕 I've just finished iCompute's first set of self-directed Scratch coding tutorials for Year 3 children. Pupils can work through the activities at their own pace, revisit instructions when needed and build confidence as they create, test and debug their masterpieces! Years 4, 5 and 6 are next. ✨ Imagine it ✨ Build it ✨ Change the world icompute-uk.com

AI is already shaping children’s lives, and the government's Curriculum Review confirms that it and digital literacy must be taught properly in Computing. At iCompute, we already teach: ✅ digital literacy across KS1 and KS2 ✅ Artificial Intelligence throughout the primary phase ✅ safe, sensible understanding of AI from an early age Read my post about what the review says, and what iCompute is already delivering. icompute-uk.com/news/primary…

Computing Curriculum Review - iCompute

The 2028 revised computing curriculum will include stronger digital literacy and Artificial Intelligence. iCompute is already delivering it.
