Reception Develop Their Computer Skills

Our Reception pupils recently visited one of the School’s new IT Suites and spent some time learning how to use a mouse. They quickly mastered this, whilst honing their mark making abilities, exercises which help to develop their fine motor skills.

The children were amazing, listening to instructions & quickly developing new capabilities to support them in their learning across the curriculum. The Reception children make regular visits to the IT Suite across the academic year, whilst Computer Science forms part of each child’s timetable from Year 1 upwards.

The goal of Computer Science at Sedbergh Prep is for computing to take place across all subjects as part of an essential well-rounded academic preparation. Just as literacy and numeracy skills are championed across the curriculum, so too is computer literacy.
