Year 8

Summary

In Year 8 pupils study ICT for one lesson a week . Pupils arrive at St Louis with a range of ICT knowledge and skills. Therefore, time is spent in year 8 making sure that pupils have the skills they will need to be able to use ICT effectively within other curriculum subjects.

Pupils learn to use a word processor, a desktop publishing package, presentation software, and a spreadsheet and database package. St Louis has Microsoft Office 2003 installed on the computers. Throughout the year pupils complete practical tasks using this software to demonstrate their level of skill, knowledge and understanding. Pupils will be able to access the internet in year 8 to support their ICT work.
