What content will be delivered and how?
This project will provide Key Stage Two pupils (P5/6/7) with structured, hands-on learning in Scratch coding, delivered by REIM Training Solutions. Sessions will take place within the school using our new iPads, ensuring full accessibility for all pupils.
The programme will introduce pupils to fundamental coding concepts through the Scratch platform, enabling them to design and create their own interactive projects. Teaching will focus on developing computational thinking, creativity, and problem-solving skills through practical, engaging activities. Pupils will also explore how coding is used in everyday life, from digital entertainment to household technology and transport systems, alongside an introduction to future career pathways that require coding skills.
The key aims of the project are to:
-Improve pupils’ digital literacy and coding skills.
-Enhance staff confidence and capacity in delivering a skills-based ICT curriculum.
-Foster creativity, logical thinking, and problem-solving skills.
-Inspire pupils’ interest in coding and future careers in technology.
-Support long-term improvements in the school’s ICT provision.
Target Group
The project will target all Key Stage Two pupils within the school, including those from disadvantaged backgrounds (e.g. pupils entitled to free school meals) and those with additional educational needs. The inclusive delivery model ensures equitable access to high-quality digital learning opportunities.
This project offers significant added value by bringing expert-led instruction directly into the school environment. Pupils will benefit from high-quality, engaging experiences that may not otherwise be available within the standard curriculum. The workshops will support both immediate skill development and long-term curriculum enhancement, leaving a lasting impact on teaching and learning in ICT.
By engaging pupils at a critical stage in their education, the project aims to increase confidence and interest in digital skills, helping to address inequalities in access to technology education and encouraging broader participation in STEM-related fields.
Additional Information
The workshops will be delivered during the school day and require no additional registration. All resources and equipment will be provided or are already available within the school.
