WORKING TOWARDS - Pupils know they can save a file on one computer and open it on another.
MET - Pupils recognise that interconnected computers can save files to a central location and that this can be accessed from a range of machines.
FURTHER PROGRESSION - Pupils recognise that interconnected computers can save files to a central location, known as a server. They understand that a range of machines may access the server, giving them access to the file.
