1. Algorithm design

Build secure Key Stage 2 understanding of algorithm design in Computing.

A common misconception is treating algorithm design in Computing as a memorised label instead of a usable idea with evidence.

Validation: Generated starter-map content for MVP breadth. It is structurally complete but still requires subject-expert review before production claims.

Starter concept map Pending expert review Prerequisite: Core vocabulary for algorithm design Extension: Extend toward programming sequences and loops once algorithm design is transferable.

Stage progression

Repair foundation: Key Stage 1 Computing - Repair foundations in Key Stage 1 Computing if algorithm design is blocked by earlier knowledge.

Later outcome: Key Stage 3 Computing - Stretch algorithm design toward Key Stage 3 Computing once evidence is transferable.

Representative problem: Complete one short Computing task using algorithm design and explain one step.

Mastery signal: Explains algorithm design in their own words
