We have been working hard to extend our course offering so that you can use our engaging content for teaching and learning at KS3(UK)/grades 6-8(US).

Presenting: Computational Thinking - Create a maze game

We are particularly excited about this new course which delivers the concepts of Computational Thinking in parallel with coding skills. You can choose to complete the project with your students using either JavaScript or Python, it’s up to you!

The course covers:
