This document is for those following our Computing: Long-term plan - mixed-age and gives an overview of the skills and knowledge progression throughout our Computing curriculum.

It shows which cycle each skill is covered in and those skills which are in bold are those which appear in both cycle A and cycle B. Please note that the cycles in each phase may look unbalanced in terms of coverage. For example, one cycle may have all the programming units, and the other have none. This decision has been made to ensure that the learning in these areas is progressive in terms of skills and knowledge and that pupils have the same opportunities by the end of Year 2, Year 4 and Year 6 as they would do if they were being taught in single year groups.

If you would like to see the skills and knowledge covered in each unit, then please see our Computing key skills and knowledge by unit.
