Teacher video: Networks unit overview

This Computing video introduces teachers to the Year 3 Networks unit. It explains how children will develop their understanding of what computer networks are and how they function, including key concepts such as servers, routers, and data packets. The video highlights the use of unplugged activities to help children grasp the structure and behaviour of networks without needing devices, making abstract concepts more accessible.

This video is part of Kapow Primary’s Computing Networks resources for Key Stage 2. It supports teachers in delivering lessons that build foundational knowledge of digital communication and the Internet.
