About Us
Key Stage 1 Year 1 & 2 Lessons
🖥️ From First Steps to Real Computing Skills
The TechXpet learning journey begins with concepts children can recognise from their everyday lives.
In our Year 1 programme, learners explore topics such as:
🌍 Technology Around Us
Children discover what technology is, identify technology in their home and school, and explore how different technologies help people.
🖥️ Understanding Computers
Learners become familiar with the main parts of a desktop or laptop computer and begin understanding what each part does.
🖱️ Developing Mouse Skills
Children practise essential mouse skills such as clicking, dragging and opening programmes.
⌨️ Learning to Use a Keyboard
Learners discover what a keyboard is used for, practise typing and begin creating simple digital work.
🎨 Creating with Technology
Children begin using technology as a tool for creativity, making simple digital content and expressing their ideas.
🔐 Using Technology Safely
Learners are introduced to simple principles of safe, responsible and positive technology use.
🧠 Learning Through Doing
At TechXpet, we believe computing should not be something children simply watch.
Our learning approach encourages children to:
WATCH → THINK → TRY → CREATE → ACHIEVE
They watch a concept being explained, think about what they have learned, try the skill themselves, create something using their knowledge and complete activities that help them recognise their progress.
This approach helps transform screen time into purposeful learning time.
Key Stage 2 Year 1 & 2 Lessons
💻 In Our Year 2 Programme, Learners Explore Topics Such As:
🖥️ Computing Systems & Networks
Children build on their Year 1 knowledge by exploring how computers and digital devices work together. They begin to understand that computers can be connected and that networks allow information to be shared.
🌐 The Internet & Staying Safe Online
Learners discover what the internet is and how it can be used to find and share information. They develop age-appropriate strategies for staying safe, making sensible choices and knowing when to ask a trusted adult for help.
🧩 Programming & Algorithms
Children begin to understand that computers follow instructions. Through games and practical activities, they explore sequences, algorithms, commands and debugging.
🔍 Finding & Using Information
Learners develop early skills in searching for information, recognising useful information and understanding that not everything they see online should automatically be trusted.
🎨 Creating Digital Content
Children use digital tools to create and communicate ideas, developing their confidence with text, images and other forms of digital content.
📊 Data & Information
Learners explore how information can be collected, organised and represented. They begin to understand how computers can help us store and work with information.
🔐 Digital Safety & Responsibility
Children continue developing safe and responsible habits when using computers, the internet and digital devices, including understanding the importance of privacy and seeking help when something makes them uncomfortable.
🧠 Computational Thinking & Problem Solving
Learners develop their ability to break problems into smaller steps, recognise patterns, follow logical instructions and identify mistakes.
