EYFS Technology Strand
• Encourage children to add to their first-hand experience of the world through the use of books, other texts and information, and information and communication technology (ICT).
• Provide a range of materials and objects to play with that work in different ways for different purposes, for example, egg whisk, torch, other household implements, pulleys, construction kits and tape recorder.
• Provide a range of programmable toys, as well as equipment involving ICT, such as computers.
• Provide a range of materials and objects to play with that work in different ways for different purposes, for example, egg whisk, torch, other household implements, pulleys, construction kits and tape recorder.
• Provide a range of programmable toys, as well as equipment involving ICT, such as computers
• Completes a simple program on a computer.
• Uses ICT hardware to interact with age-appropriate computer software. Early Learning Goal Children recognise that a range of technology is used in places such as homes and schools. They select and use technology for particular purposes.
• Encourage children to speculate on the reasons why things happen or how things work.
• Support children to coordinate actions to use technology, for example, call a telephone number.
• Teach and encourage children to click on different icons to cause things to happen in a computer program
• Help children to find out about the environment by talking to people, examining photographs and simple maps and visiting local places.

| EYFS (reception) | Year 1 | Year 2 | Year 3 | Year 4 | Year 5 | Year 6 | Suggested programmes / resources | vocabulary | |
| National curriculum | Understand what algorithms are, how they are implemented as programs on digital devices, and that programs execute by following precise and unambiguous instructions
Create and debug simple programs |
Design, write and debug programs that accomplish specific goals, including controlling or simulating physical systems; solve problems by decomposing them into smaller parts
Use sequence, selection, and repetition in programs; work with variables and various forms of input and output Use logical reasoning to explain how some simple algorithms work and to detect and correct errors in algorithms and programs |
