Coding for Kids, aged 6 to 16

My son absolutely loves The Code Zone. He genuinely looks forward to his session every week and it’s been amazing watching his confidence and coding skills grow. The tutors are friendly, encouraging and make learning feel fun rather than like a lesson. As a parent, I love seeing him so excited about something that’s also teaching him such valuable skills for the future. He comes away proud of what he’s created and always wants to tell me about it. Really lovely club and definitely worth it — highly recommend!

Very happy with the taster we have signed up for weekly lessons.

My son attended Code Zone live lessons for several years. He is autistic, selective mute and struggled with school but wanted to learn game design so we signed him up. When he was struggling to attend school having the live lessons once a week gave us some much needed structure, but there was never any pressure to interact outside his comfort zone. His mentor was fantastic, absolutely understand George's needs and communicating via messages rather than expecting him to speak. There was a long period of time our son didn't speak to anyone outside our family except his mentor Nik, and that gave us hope. Although he now feels he has grown out of the clubs, it has given him a solid foundation in Python coding and helped him decide what elements of design he wants to pursue. Code Zone also has fantastic customer service, letting us know any time he missed a session and offering alternatives when necessary. Really thoughtful and proactive. Highly recommend!

The classes are well thought through and the instructors are great, they know how to talk to children and engage them. They actively check whether any of them needs any assistance and they are very quick to help them. My son has learnt a lot since he joined and he has had a lot of fun. The classes don't just teach coding, but also logic and problem solving, all while playing. Customer service also is exceptional.

Dylan had a great time so far - and he hardly likes anything. He is looking forward to his classes and to learn more. Great experience overall so far

My 8 year old son, Jacob, recently did a taster session with The Code Zone and he absolutely loved it. Jacob has ASD and loves to talk a lot when he's excited; his mentor, Meg, was incredibly patient and brilliant at keeping him engaged. It’s so heartening to find a hobby where he feels understood and supported. He had such a great time that we’ve already signed up for the monthly course. Highly recommend to any parents, especially those looking for an inclusive and welcoming environment!

My son is enjoying his sessions at Code Zone. He finds the sessions challenging and learns something new each time. The customer service is excellent; they are very responsive to all my queries and requests.

My son is loving this. Loves the group sessions and spends all week practicing. Well worth the money. The mentors are lovely and explain everything simply. 5⭐️

I am really happy with The Code Zone and the classes that my son attends. One thing that really stands out for me is the patience that the teachers have with the young people, my son is autistic so I always worry that teachers won’t understand him, or become frustrated by his needs, so I feel really happy that he is so engaged and happy in the class. The teachers are really supportive and patient and this is the type of energy I want around my child when he is learning. After one week he is now setting him self up for class and I don’t see him until it’s over. I really value safe secure environments where children can be themselves without fear and judgement, and he is definitely happy at the Code Zone.

Very pleased with the service. Everyone is lovely, kind and helpful. The coding itself is manageable, suitable and easy to follow.

My little one started with the code zone and absolutely loved his sessions. His mentor(s) were helpful and made the sessions interactive and interesting! Sadly my LO decided he didn't want to learn coding anymore. I would recommend this company to anyone. Definitely 5 stars!

My daughter had the BEST time in game dev with Code Zone, she engaged so well from the start and was guided brilliantly throughout. The session was really interactive and she loved being able to hack the game “Penguin Paddle”changing the sprite, switching up the colours and even making it more challenging! She was completely absorbed and didn’t want it to end, which says it all really. A huge shoutout to Jaz, her mentor, who was amazing at answering questions, keeping everyone engaged and making sure each child understood what to do. Such a supportive and encouraging environment 🙌 Would absolutely recommend for kids interested in coding or just trying something new!

It was a really good and fun first lesson. Gane and learning at the same time. Our child loves it.

It's really good my daughter enjoys it. The mentors are very patient and helpful.

Our nearly 10yo AuDHD child has always enjoyed coding, computer games and tech, but since being Home Educated has missed out. Having found The Code Zone, and especially Lauren his mentor, he has been super happy to be back to coding and making games again. Lauren is very patient, and we have found that he spends more time on Scratch and coding then playing his VR now which is a bonus! Looking forward to seeing him flourish over time!

We LOVE the Code Zone! everything about it works for our son, 8 who is diagnosed autistic and ADHD and doesn't usually engage in clubs/activities outside of school hours- especially not alone. But he loves his Tuesday session with Luna! They are so supportive and kind and knowledgeable and he's learning incidental coding without really realising because it is all so gamified.Honestly can't recommend enough.

Amazing experience for the tech genius which is my son. Brilliant customer service and friendly staff. Flexible and easy to approach to get the best out of the service provided. Would highly recommend.

The code zone are absolutely brilliant with my autistic son. They are extremely supportive, informative and inclusive going out their way to make sure my son’s needs are understood and met. My son finds it hard to settle into group activities but he has had no problems with his coding sessions and gets very excited for them. The groups aren’t too big so each child gets the help and support they need and it is a low stress environment where each child can go at their own pace.

We used The Code Zone to set up a group Minecraft event for 8-11 year olds. The kids had an absolute blast using their mod worlds and grownups felt secure that it was fun and safe event! Win-Win!

Absolutely amazing, I have already recommended them to several people
