Cs@manchester Podcast

Today's episode features an interview with Dave Ames and Sarah Zaman, two members of the CAS Regional Centre, the North West base of the Computing At School. The Regional Centre is a major new initiative to build regional support for computing in all Primary and Secondary schools. It is run jointly by the University of Manchester (School of Computer Science) and Edge Hill University, and is funded by the Department of Education through BCS (CAS). We talk about the work that they've been doing across the region with school children, and the role they play in supporting teachers tackle the change in curriculum in Computer Science. We also celebrate their recent successes including a Better World award, recognising their work in Widening Participation. http://www.cs.manchester.ac.uk/study/news/full-article/?articleid=4995 If you wish to contact the CAS team please email casmanchester@computingatschool.org.uk
