What We Teach

12+ years old

What is taught: Website design, HTML, CSS, Javascript and website hosting.
Learning outcomes: By the end of the course, students will be able to design and deploy their own websites.
Teaching formats: 3 month intensive, Saturday coding club, and in schools.
Prerequisites: No previous knowledge required.
Why learn Web Dev?: We live in a world where most businesses have a website. Understanding how websites work, and being able to build them, is a highly employable skill.

5 - 12 year olds

What is taught: Students will learn the fundamental ideas behind programming using the fun and intuitive block-based Scratch language.
Learning outcomes: Depending on the level taught, students could learn to use Scratch to make animations, small games and even simple simulations.
Teaching formats: Saturday coding club, and in schools.
Prerequisites: No previous knowledge required.
Why learn Scratch?: Scratch teaches people the fundamental concepts behind programming in a non-confusing way. Students that have learnt Scratch find it much easier to then learn other coding languages such as C, Python, and Javascript.

12+ year olds

What is taught: Students will learn to build and program electrical control circuits using an Arduino mirco-controller. They will learn to write control code in C/C++ that monitors inputs from sensors and controls output actions, such as activating a motor, or turning on an LED.
Learning outcomes: Students will learn about designing electrical control circuits, Arduino micro-controllers, and programming in C/C++.
Teaching formats: 3 month intensive, Saturday coding club, and in schools.
Prerequisites: No previous knowledge required.
Why learn Robotics?: Micro-controllers are used everywhere - in your watch, phone, car... any electrical device that controls something. They are also used to control industrial machines. Robotic engineers are in high demand.
