The Purple Mash Computing Scheme gives primary schools everything they need to confidently teach Computing from EYFS to Year 6. Fully aligned to the UK National Curriculum, it covers Computer Science, Information Technology and Digital Literacy, with ready-to-use lesson plans, teaching resources, assessment tools and a clear progression of skills and knowledge.

That's why the Computing Scheme is September's Mash of the Month!

This year, Her Majesty the Queen will become the first British monarch to celebrate a platinum jubilee after 70 years of service, having acceded to the throne on the 6th of February 1952 when she was just 25 years old. There are a range of events to mark this historic occasion culminating with the platinum jubilee weekend in June.

We were privileged to partner with Lanchester Primary to host Sigmund 'Sigi' Ciffer to share his story with not only pupils from the school, but over 100 pupils, teachers and parents from 25 schools across the North East of England.

Each month we highlight a different tool or application within Purple Mash and how it can be used within the classroom to support learning across the curriculum. We call this the Mash of the Month, this month it's our Multiplication Tables Check. During the month, if you share how you have used the #MashoftheMonth, you will then be entered into a draw to win a 2Simple Goody Bag!
