Pupils at St Swithun Wells’ Catholic Primary School in Hillingdon are celebrating after receiving a national computing award.
The West London school has been recognised as a UK Coding Champion by Discovery Education, which provides digital and coding resources to primary schools.
Pupils at St Swithun Wells’ designed and shared over 2900 apps last year, placing them in the top three schools for Discovery Education Coding across the UK. The school’s talented young learners used their ICT skills to create a whole range of imaginative computer games, using different programming languages, and featuring characters including dinosaurs, princesses and even HM The Queen!
The school was given a gold award in recognition of their achievement and a Makey Makey coding kit –an electronic invention tool which connects everyday objects to the internet.
