The National curriculum for computing can be found here. These are the statutory programmes of study and attainment targets for computing at key stages 1 to 4.
Rapid Router can help you to cover the following national curriculum points:
โข Understand what algorithms are; how they are implemented as programs on digital devices; and that programs execute by following precise and unambiguous instructions
โข Create and debug simple programs
โข Use logical reasoning to predict the behaviour of simple programs
โข Recognise common uses of technology beyond school
We recommend that you start at Level 1 on Rapid Router.
Rapid Router can help you to cover the following national curriculum points:
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 (offline resources, all debugging tasks and levels 13 - 18) to explain how some simple algorithms work and to detect and correct errors in algorithms and programs
use sequence (levels 1 - 18), selection (levels 29 - 50), and repetition (19 onward), in programs; work with variables and various forms of input and output
We recommend that you start at Level 1 on Rapid Router.
Rapid Router can help you to cover the following national curriculum points:
design, use and evaluate computational abstractions that model the state and behaviour of real-world problems and physical systems
design and develop modular programs that use procedures or functions (levels 61 - 67)
Rapid Router can be used to develop skills with sequence, selection and iteration, as well as debugging.
Please see our Python Den resources for textual programming.
We recommend that you start at around Level 13 - 18 on Rapid Router.
Rapid Router can help you to cover the following national curriculum points:
Develop and apply their analytic, problem-solving, design, and computational thinking skills
Rapid Router can be used to develop skills with sequence, selection and iteration, as well as debugging and modular program development.
We recommend that you start at around Level 13 - 18 on Rapid Router. Please see our Python Den resources for textual programming.
