7. KS2: Objectives Algorithms Algorithms can be represented symbolically [flowcharts] or using instructions in a clearly defined language [turtle graphics]. Algorithms can include selection (if) and repetition (loops). Programs A computer program is a sequence of instructions written to perform a specified task with a computer. The idea of a program as a sequence of statements written in a programming language [Scratch] One or more mechanisms for selecting which statement sequence will be executed, based upon the value of some data item One or more mechanisms for repeating the execution of a sequence of statements, and using the value of some data item to control the number of times the sequence is repeated

8. KS3: Objectives Algorithms An algorithm is a sequence of precise steps to solve a given problem. A single problem may be solved by several different algorithms. The need for accuracy of both algorithm and data [difficulty of data verification; garbage in, garbage out] Programs Variables and assignment. The use of relational operators and logic to control which program statements are executed, and in what order – Simple use of AND, OR and NOT – Use of comparison operators
