What will the workshop cover?

Designed to help you and your school get the most from Barefoot, this workshop is aimed at computing subject leaders and illustrates how to maximise the impact of Barefoot’s resources and CPD workshops in your school.

During this interactive workshop, participating subject leaders share their curriculum plans and explore a variety of methods to enhance these with Barefoot resources; coming away with an action plan of how to strengthen their existing computing curriculum.

 

Do I need any prior experience?

This workshop is aimed at computing subject leaders of any experience level and requires you to bring your curriculum plans. Whether you are new to the role of computing lead, or have been leading computing for some time, we’d welcome you to join this workshop and contribute to the discussion on ‘Making the Most’ of Barefoot.

Teacher Testimonials

Take a look at some testimonials received from teachers who have attended our three workshops below.

Early Years

“In Early Years we can be afraid of delivering technology-based experiences as we fear it’s too advanced or we don’t know the correct language to use. This workshop put it into perspective and inspired me to do more.” 

“I found the workshop really useful; it has refreshed my thoughts on technology and given me such great ideas and resources that I’m sure all the kids will love.” 

Computational Thinking

“Even though the course was online, it was interactive and engaging. I liked that we were asked to do some of the activities that you can do with your pupils as it let me see how easy it can be to develop computational skills within the classroom.” 

“It really made me think and help understand what computational thinking is really about.  The clear cross curricular links and how it is often something we are already doing, just not thought of in that way!” 

Programming in Scratch

“I've tried to have several introductions to Scratch before but this one is the best by far - practical projects, videos were great, delivery was clear and interesting.” 

“Really engaging and fun activities that could be used with children. Also, good for developing staff confidence and subject knowledge.”
