As Computing subject leader, I was tasked with trying and testing a multitude of apps for use on the school iPads. After testing a multitude of apps (some poor, some great) I made a full list of the best apps for each subject. This list is the EYFS group of apps for Literacy, Numeracy, programming, Design and Technology, imaginative play and a section of really useful apps for staff iPads.
All apps are priced and available on iTunes currently which ensures your iPads stay current and engaging rather than becoming expensive cameras for staff!

These apps will support your teaching in all of these subject areas and keep pupils engaged, happy and enjoying Literacy. Use them in lessons, tutoring sessions, booster groups or an after-school club, it’s up to you!
A lesson to encourage pupils to have a positive body image and to celebrate who they are. This is part of a PSHE unit which promotes healthy living and mental well-being.
This full resourced lesson describes to younger pupils what the 2017 general election is they can understand. It introduces them to key vocabulary such as ‘voting’, ‘Member of Parliament’, ‘House of Commons’ and ‘ballot box’. All you need to do is slice up 30 pieces of paper and a cardboard box for your class to use to vote!
During this interactive lesson, pupils will learn how people vote, who they vote for and what MPs do. They then vote for a class MP / student councillor to give voting a try themselves!
