Deliver & Assess an Outstanding ICT & Computing Curriculum

Tuesday 25 Sep 2012
Central London
Lead whole-school staff training, and design an innovative curriculum that embeds technology in all learning and promotes digital literacy

NEW SPEAKER CONFIRMED: Peter Twining, Director of Vital and Senior Lecturer at the Open University to deliver a comprehensive keynote update on government reforms around ICT and progress on the national curriculum review.

Why is this conference relevant?

Are you equipped to deliver an 'outstanding' ICT and computing curriculum in your school now that the existing programme of study has been removed?

By disapplying the ICT curriculum, The Dfe has offered schools the freedom to make much better use of new technology and develop a new curriculum in a way that suits each individual school. But how can you ensure making the right decisions to equip your students with 21st skills and digital literacy?

With a consultation still underway on the new National Curriculum, are you left wondering what an ‘Outstanding’ ICT curriculum looks like in practice?  And in the face of new emphasis on computer science and programming in schools, do your staff have the capability and capacity to deliver this new curriculum competently?   If so, this conference will provide some much-needed guidance.
