HFL Education’s experienced and highly trained computing and EdTech advisers can help your teaching staff to delivery confident and engaging content within the primary computing curriculum.

Computing is now a core part of the KS1 and KS2 curriculum and a compulsory subject for children across their primary education from Year 1 to Year 6 , but many teachers lack specialist knowledge and confidence around the computing curriculum.

Luckily, our specialist advisers can offer high-quality, up to date and bespoke computing training, consultancy and guidance that will allow your staff to create dynamic and vibrant learning experiences.

Common challenges facing computing in primary schools

A lack of confidence among teachers in their own computing knowledge and understanding is a common issue when it comes to delivering lesson content around the computing curriculum.

Many schools also require support in understanding how to:

  • Build the foundations of computing in younger children in the EYFS
  • Identifying which primary computing scheme of work to follow
  • Understand which computing resources are best suited to delivering the KS1 and KS2 curriculum
  • Provide help and support for the school’s computing subject leader
