Who are we?
We are a group of Computing Hubs across England, led by schools and colleges with excellence in teaching computing. Our hubs are comprised of:

London, Surrey & West Sussex (teachcomputing@newsteadwood.co.uk)

Dartford, Essex and East Sussex (teachcomputing@dartfordgrammarschool.org.uk)

Maidstone & Kent (teachcomputing@mggs.org)

Hubs support schools and colleges to provide a high-quality computing education to all young people.

We will work with you to identify your computing needs and provide a targeted programme of support to help embed this key subject in your school. Support includes high-quality CPD with generous subsidies; teaching and learning resources; and school-to-school support.
Vision and Background
Our vision is for every child in every school in England to receive a world-leading computing education. And it's in secondary education that we build strongly on the foundations set in the primary years, and prepare students for further study, rewarding careers and citizenship. 
The National Centre for Computing Education (NCCE) is funded by the Department for Education and marks a significant investment in improving the provision of computing education in England.
Run by a consortium made up of STEM Learning, the Raspberry Pi Foundation and BCS, The Chartered Institute for IT, our vision is to achieve a world-leading computing education for every child in England.
Secondary Certification
Teach Computing offers a comprehensive range of support for secondary schools to develop inspirational computing teaching

We help address a challenge faced by many senior leadership teams in secondary schools and colleges - recruiting and retaining teachers with the skills to provide high quality delivery of the computing curriculum.
