Outstanding Secondary Computing Curriculum


This [the new curriculum] brings exciting challenges for computing teachers we are raising our expectations of the subject knowledge they should have, including how computers work, programming and coding.
Since Michael Gove disapplied the previous ICT programme of study last year, the subject has been under much debate, and now a brand new computing curriculum is to be released this autumn ready to be rolled out in 2014. Under this new, slimmed-down curriculum, responsibility will fall on schools to develop innovative schemes of work, deliver creative lessons and establish accurate and effective methods of assessing pupil progress in computing. Do you know what an outstanding computing curriculum looks like? Are you and your staff equipped with the skills to effectively deliver this? Optimus Educations Design and Deliver an Outstanding Computing Curriculum is your unique opportunity to take away a set of invaluable, practical strategies to lead effective staff CPD, and learn methods to develop a balanced computing curriculum so that pupils can become active creators and controllers of technology.* We will be welcoming a senior representative from Ofsted who will clarify how the new computing curriculum will be inspected, how you can evidence progress and crucially, what outstanding will look like. Plus, David Weston, Chief Executive of the Teacher Development Trust, will provide practical CPD strategies as well as methods to assess and address the computing skills gap in your school and prepare your staff to condently deliver the new curriculum. Attend practical and interactive workshops that will enable you to: Gain best practice on making the most of BYOD, and learn how you can turn a smart phone into an exciting tool for learning Leave with a wealth of practical classroom ideas for incorporating tablets into everyday teaching and make a measurable impact on pupil progress Ensure new technology is being effectively used across the curriculum to enhance digital literacy Return to your school equipped with practical strategies to full your new responsibilities under the changing computing curriculum. Included in your registration is a FREE pre-event webinar. After the event, you will be given access to download speakers presentations to lead training in your organisation. Please take a moment to look through the programme on the opposite page and use the booking form on the back to secure you place. We look forward to welcoming you in October. *DfE
