Key Stage 1

 

Pupils should be taught to:

 

• understand what algorithms are; how they are implemented as programs on digital devices; and that programs execute by following precise and unambiguous instructions
• create and debug simple programs
• use logical reasoning to predict the behaviour of simple programs
• use technology purposefully to create, organise, store, manipulate and retrieve digital content
• use technology safely and respectfully, keeping personal information private; know where to go for help and support when they have concerns about material on the internet
• recognise common uses of information technology beyond school.
