PPA Computing Cover for Primary Schools in Wiltshire

What Is PPA Computing Cover?

PPA time is a statutory entitlement for teachers, but finding specialist cover that genuinely adds value can be a challenge, particularly for a subject like computing. Many schools rely on generalist supply teachers or teaching assistants to cover computing lessons, which can result in inconsistent delivery and limited progression for pupils.

Collaborative Computing Education provides specialist computing teaching during your PPA time, so class teachers get genuine planning time while pupils receive consistent, curriculum-aligned lessons from someone with real subject expertise and over a decade of primary classroom experience.

Why It Matters for Your School

Computing is one of the most challenging subjects for primary schools to staff well. It requires subject knowledge, confidence with technology, and an understanding of how children learn. When PPA cover is provided by a computing specialist, pupils benefit from well-planned, purposeful lessons that build on prior learning and develop genuine skills.

For schools in Wiltshire and the surrounding area, Collaborative Computing Education offers a reliable, high-quality solution that works around your timetable and your needs.
