At Church of the Ascension Primary school, our vision is to equip children with the skills and digital literacy to actively participate in a rapidly and ever-changing environment, where work and leisure activities are increasingly influenced by technology. By exploring a wide variety of programmes and learning a plethora of skills including creativity, children will be prepared for the workforce of the future.

Our learners will be responsible digital citizens who appreciate the benefits of using technology to create their own content. They will develop a range of strategies to keep themselves safe from the potential dangers online to effectively connect with the world. Through learning valuable critical thinking skills, they will be able to analyse information to decide whether it is reliable and can be trusted.

They will become confident programmers, communicators, digital designers and data analyists who evaluate their own work and reflect upon the work of their peers, building pride and resilience.
