Level

The first step in the coding journey

Level 1 courses are aimed at those who are new to learning coding in Python. They are also suitable for those who may have already done a bit of Python—a Level 1 course ensures that the fundamentals on which all of coding are built are well understood.

Although we start from the fundamentals in all our age groups in Level 1, we progress at a faster pace for older age groups.

A Level 1 course is the starting point for learning coding in Python. Students will then progress through higher level courses and all our students can access support during and after courses through our student forum.

Course Description

Details on our curriculum and methods

We believe that the most important skill to learn is to be able to think in the manner required to be able to communicate with a computer. This includes thinking in a logical and systematic way, problem-solving, and fostering a mindset in which errors are seen as a key part of learning — these are all key aspects of programming and skills that are relevant beyond coding as well.

All our courses:

have small class sizes to ensure individual attention;
focus on understanding how to communicate with a computer through coding, which is the essential skill for a good programmer;
teach the fundamentals of computer programming thoroughly while making sure it's fun and engaging. We deliberately choose to teach Python programming on a computer rather than using other gadgets and devices that can distract from learning the basics of coding well;
include additional resources: videos, notes and quizzes to act as a reminder of what was covered in the course;
include support during and after the course;
put equal importance on having exceptional content and exceptional delivery as we believe that both are critical to learn a specialised subject such as coding.

Courses are centred around one or more projects including writing animations and games through which we cover the key topics in programming, including data types and data structures, conditional statements, control flow and functions, and focus on the skills required to plan and construct a computer program in an efficient manner.
