Play and Exploration• Children learn through first hand experience in activities they have
chosen
• Play allows children to test their ideas
• Play lets children learn from mistakes
• Play fosters imagination and flexibility of mind
• Rich, enabling environments are provided
• Allow children to dictate the pace, length and focus; interventions should be supportive
• Recognise children’s fascination with and curiosity about what is going on in their worlds.
EYFS: Effective practice: play and exploration

ICT in schools 2008–11An evaluation of information and communication technology
education in schools in England 2008–11
Most of the Key Stage 1 pupils observed were able to learn programming through devising and testing sequences of instructions for floor robots. However, in Key Stage 2, pupils in the majority of schools visited had insufficient opportunities to develop their understanding and use of programming, and data logging and handling.
design and write programs that accomplish specific goals, including controlling or simulating physical systems; solve problems by decomposing them into smaller parts
