CAS Communities (View all CAS Communities on Map )

Welcome to the CAS Barking and Dagenham Mixed Community, run by Gillian Bratley, Advisory Teacher for Barking and Dagenham. We launched in October 2017 and welcome teachers with all levels of computing experience to come and join us.

We are passionate about helping students to increase their knowledge and skills in Computer Science and to develop their computational-thinking skills.

We are keen to meet other colleagues to share knowledge and skills of teaching Computer Science, in order to help students succeed and achieve in their Computing studies.

The CAS Bromley and Hayes Primary Community is based at Hayes Primary School and run by Alex Sieber.

We hope that you will come along to the meetings to share expertise and experiences amongst local colleagues. If you would like to suggest things that we can include in future Community meetings, or think you could deliver part of a session, then please get in touch with Alex.

The CAS Camden Mixed Community is run from the Camden Learning Centre by Gillian Ingram in collaboration with UCL Department of Computer Science and Rae Harbird.

UCL’s Department of Computer Science is a global leader in research in experimental computer science. Its degree programmes recognise the ever-increasing importance of computer systems in fields such as commerce, industry, government and science. Historically the department has had a big impact on computing in Europe – notably establishing the first connection to the precursor of the Internet outside the US. It continues to create innovative technologies and to change lives with computers.

The CAS Croydon Secondary Community is run by Sarah Ingrams, Head of ICT & Computing at NMBEC (Norbury Manor Business Enterprise college), and Paul Sinnett.

We hope to create a friendly environment that allows for sharing, supporting and discussion with regards to the Computing curriculum. We would encourage people to bring SoW and resources that can be discussed, and ideas that can be shared.

CAS Croydon South Mixed Community is led by CAS Master Teacher Isabelle Singh from Riddlesdown Collegiate school. She welcomes teachers from local Primary and Secondary schools.

The CAS Hammersmith Mixed Community is led by Nicholas Hughes, CAS Master Teacher and Head of Computing at Latymer Prep School.

Come down and join in - we welcome everyone, Primary and Secondary, and hope we offer an opportunity to find out more about the Computing curriculum.

Welcome to the CAS Haringey Mixed Community, the result of a joint initiative between Ada, the National College for Digital Skills, and Gladesmore Community College.

Meetings will be scheduled alternatively at our two premises:

Ada, National College for Digital Skills, Broad Lane, Tottenham Hale, London N15 4AG (www.ada.ac.uk)

and:

Gladesmore Community School, Crowland Road, Tottenham, London N15 6EB.

The community has been created to support teachers and trainers in the local area and beyond. College, Secondary and Primary school colleagues are welcome to join our meetings.

Igli Gjozi at Gladesmore Community School, and Mark Campbell at Ada, the National College for Digital Skills, are the joint CAS Community Leaders here, running a welcoming and supportive Community for all.

Our meetings are for teachers, run by teachers.

We are here to offer the opportunity for teachers to meet in a relaxed and informal atmosphere; to share ideas and resources; to receive training; and to gain mutual support from discussing teaching methods with colleagues.

Our aim is for Computing (with computer science at its heart) to become firmly established in all Primary and Secondary schools, alongside mathematics and the natural sciences; and to support all teachers committed to providing high-quality computing education for their pupils.

We are a brand new CAS Community - setting up in Summer 2020 for all Primary and Secondary Computing Leads in Newham and beyond.

Please look out for our future events - starting on 10 July 2020.

The CAS Notting Hill Mixed Community has been re-launched by CAS Master Teacher, Clifford French, of Camden School for Girls and Norland Place School.

Welcome to the CAS Tottenham South Mixed Community, meeting at Gladesmore Community School. The Community Leader is Mr Igli Gjozi, supported by colleagues. We are keen to support teachers in the local area and beyond.

Both Secondary and Primary School colleagues are welcome to join the meetings.

The CAS Waltham Forest Primary Community is run by Allen Tsui from Willow Brook Primary. He looks forward to welcoming new members to the group.

Welcome to the CAS Waltham Forest Secondary Community, based at George Mitchell School in Leyton.

Our aim is to provide a forum for Computer Science teachers to discuss issues around the curriculum, as well as to provide training.
