Computing at Ashurst
Computing Lead - Miss Collier
At Ashurst Primary School, we understand the immense value that technology plays not only in supporting the Computing and whole school curriculum but overall in the day-to-day life of our school. Our aims are to fulfil the requirements of the National Curriculum for Computing whilst also providing enhanced collaborative learning opportunities, engagement in rich content and supporting pupil’s conceptual understanding of new concepts which support the needs of all our pupils.
Computing in the classroom
Internet Safety Day 2026
On Tuesday 10th February 2026, children explored this years theme of "Artificial Intelligence" in a variety of ways:
- Y2-Y6 took part in a workshop with BigFoot Arts. The children explored how to be safe and respectful online. They also looked at AI and the positive and negative impact AI has.
- In Y1, children went on a technology hunt around school to identify AI devices we have in our school. The children found BeeBots and had time coding them around a scene.
- Nursery and Reception have read stories to emphasise the importance of always being safe online and what to do if they need help.
