Digital Learning
have made a huge impact on those boys who have challenged themselves with these co-curricular options.
n The home for digital learning at the Junior School moved this year into our wonderful new IT room, surrounded by trees. This calming environment, in which to learn all things digital, has only served to intensify the boys’ passion for the subject. From programming controllers in Crumble to creating stop- motion animations and many things in between, digital learning continues to grow at the JS. It has been pleasing to see the enduring popularity of both Code Kids and M-Tech, giving the boys ample opportunities for stretch, challenge, and enjoyment beyond the day-to-day computing curriculum. These opportunities for creativity and experience
Within the core curriculum, the boys have continued to develop their coding ability with further opportunities in Year 5 and 6 to get to grips with Python as a coding language, allowing them to write basic programs. iPads are widely used throughout the JS, and the boys have a fantastic resource at their fingertips. We look forward to developing this further next year with more opportunities to collaborate and create with the launch of some powerful new learning tools.
