Abstract
The paper considers five questions in the context of teaching computing in schools. (I) What Is computing? (II) Who should teach It ? (III) What training do they require? (Iv) Where and when should this training be given ? (v) How can this be achieved ? Based on an analysis of the first four points and a summary of the problems raised therein solutions are offerred which make use of the currently avallable over-supply of teachers and the endeavours of Colleges of Advanced Education to retain viability by expanding into new fields.
