Inspire 1 2 3 4 5 6 Computing National Curriculum Requirements KS1 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. Recognise common uses of information technology beyond school. Use technology safely and respectfully, keeping personal information private; identify where to go for help and support when they have concerns about content or contact on the internet or other online technologies. I can A1 A2 Sp1 Sp 2 I know that algorithms are clear sets of instructions that digital devices use to operate. I know that they need to be precise, step-by-step sequences for the program to work Y2 Y1 I can sequence instructions to create simple programs and can debug it to find out where errors are I can follow a sequence of instructions logically to predict an outcome Y2 Y1 Y2 Y1 Y2 I can save, find, open and edit files, images and other digital content I how technology, including computers, can be used to support us outside of school I can stay safe online and understands that personal information must be kept private. I know who to talk to if I am worried about anything I have seen or read on the Internet Y1 Y2 Y1 Y1 Y2 Y1 Y1 Y2 Y1 Y2 Y1 Y2 Y1 Y2 Su 1 Su 2 Y1 Y2 Y1 Y1 Y2 Y1 Y2 Inspire 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Computing National Curriculum Requirements KS2 Design, write and debug programs that accomplish specific goals, including controlling or simulating physical systems; solve problems by decomposing them into smaller parts. Use sequence, selection, and repetition in programs; work with variables and various forms of input and output. Use logical reasoning to explain how some simple algorithms work and to detect and correct errors in algorithms and programs. Understand computer networks including the internet; how they can provide multiple services, world wide web; and the opportunities for communication and collaboration. Use search technologies effectively, appreciate how results are selected and ranked, and be discerning in evaluating digital content. Select, use and combine a variety of software (including internet services) on a range of digital devices to design and create a range of programs, systems and content that accomplish given goals Use technology safely, respectfully and responsibly; recognise acceptable/unacceptable behaviour; identify a range of ways to report concerns about content and contact. I can A1 A2 Sp1 Sp 2 Su 1 Su 2 I can plan, create and debug computer algorithms and sequences of instructions to solve specific problems. I can use subroutines to break tasks down into smaller, more manageable tasks Y3 Y5 Y4 I can sequence instructions which include loops and repetition to make the program more efficient. I can use variables and a variety of input devices which help to control the output or end result of a program I can work logically through a sequence of instructions and explain what will happen at each point. I can use this to pinpoint possible errors and modify the sequence where needed, so it works correctly Y3 Y5 Y4 Y3 Y5 Y4 I understand that computer networks and the internet are a collection of computers which are connected together. I knows that this enables the user to search and share information and communicate with one another Y4 Y5 Y3 Y5 Y6 Y5 Y3 Y4 Y6 I can experiment with a range of internet search engines and knows that they each produce different results. I can carefully assesses a website's content for its accuracy, reliability and trustworthiness Y3 Y4 Y5 Y6 Y3 Y5 Y6 Y3 Y5 Y6 Y4 Y5 Y6 I can use and combine a range of software tools, including the internet, to produce a variety of digital content and programs to meet a specific brief. I can collects, analyses and evaluates information before presenting it appropriately for the intended audience and purpose Y3 Y4 Y5 Y6 Y3 Y5 Y6 Y4 Y4 Y5 Y3 Y5 Y6 Y3 Y4 Y5 I can use technology respectfully and I am responsible for my own actions when online. I know how to behave safely and appropriately online and am aware of a range of ways to report inappropriate behaviour or content if needed Y3 Y4 Y5 Y6 Y3 Y4 Y5 Y6 Y3 Y4 Y5 Y3 Y4 Y5 Y6 Y3 Y5 Y6 Y3 Y4 Y5 Y6 Y6
