New Resource - Secondary Leaders' Toolkit

Our latest resource has brought together members of the CAS community to provide support for secondary computing leads to develop the subject in their school.

The toolkit covers a range of topics, all with the aim of:

Increasing teachers' confidence in their pedagogical and subject knowledge
Raising their awareness of parent and pupil use of technology
Providing them with ways to demonstrate their subject expertise, particularly when talking to parents, external partners, SLT and Ofsted.

Links to resources recommended by CAS community members are included throughout, which enable teachers to easily find out further information and identify their next steps.
