E-Safety

In each classroom, we have a poster to remind the children of rules to follow for being safe online - SMART.

SAFE - Stay safe online.

MEETING - Never meet up with somebody that you've met online.

ACCEPTING - Accepting unfamiliar emails and attachments/links can be dangerous.

RELIABLE - Not everything that you read or see online is reliable.  Check things first.

TELL - Tell a trusted adult if anything makes you feel uncomfortable or worried.

Computing at Summerswood

From September 2021, children will be accessing their computing lessons using our bespoke Computing curriculum. On the main curriculum webpage you can see our long term plan for Computing and more specific detail about the Autumn Term. 

They will have the opportunity to complete activities that are 'unplugged' (i.e. not on a computer/device) such as creating algorithms and de-bugging for coding as well as creating content on a computer/laptop.
