LIVE CLUBS OR SELF-PACED · ALL ONLINE

Online coding clubs for kids, aged 6 to 16

Transform your child into a confident coder and creator. More than learning to code: children build their own games and grow creativity, confidence and problem-solving, with award-winning STEM certified mentors.

A BONUS IF YOU'RE LOCAL

Everything above is online, wherever you are

Most of our members never come to a building: the clubs run online, all over the UK and beyond. But if you happen to live in one of these towns, you can do it face to face instead, with VR, robotics and AI alongside the coding. Same mentors, same approach.

You get all of this either way

Whichever you pick, children progress from Scratch through to Python and TypeScript.

They level up

They move up levels as they go, and get a STEM-certified certificate each time: Hacker, then Modder, then Architect.

Minecraft Mod Worlds

Their own Minecraft worlds to mod with real code, built by us and included at no extra cost.

A new game every week

A fresh game to build and hack each week, so there is always something they have not made yet.

Game Jams

Every season the whole club builds to one theme, then everyone plays what everyone else made.

  • Miss a week? You don’t lose it. Nothing to catch up, and they pick up where they left off.
  • Switch anytime. Start on Academy and move up, or drop back for a term.
  • Camera on or off. They can type in the chat instead of speaking, and just listen if that is what they need.
  • Cancel anytime. No minimum term, and no card needed to book a taster.
