Computing
At Bignold Primary School our Computing Curriculum is based on the Purple Mash Curriculum. Mr Wakelin is our Computing Subject Leader.
Purple Mash’s computing curriculum offers a comprehensive, interactive approach to teaching children basic coding and computational thinking in a fun and engaging way. Through activities like drag-and-drop coding, children learn the fundamentals of programming, problem-solving, and digital creativity, which are key skills for the future. The platform introduces concepts such as algorithms, sequencing, and debugging, tailored to different age groups and abilities. Students can also engage in projects that allow them to create their own animations, games, and websites, helping them develop both technical and creative skills.
