Codekids offers premier PP – Year 12 Coding, Programming, and STEM programs for the success of our students in 2030 and beyond.

Every Child in Western Australia Should Learn How to Code

By 2030, AI and robots are expected to replace as much as 30% of the world’s current human labour (McKinsey). To stay ahead of the curve, we need to embrace change and equip children with coding and programming skills in their formative years.

Codekids aims to provide support for our students every step of the way on their educational journey. We are a pioneer in children’s coding, programming and STEM education: providing students with structured programs that facilitates a steady, continuous progression of students’ coding, programming, design, engineering, and communication skills.

In order to fulfill our commitment to our students, we aim to equip them with the future proof skills needed to become innovative decision-makers, technology creators, and entrepreneurs in the digital realm. These skills are also highly valued by leading universities worldwide and top employers in the future.

Students are highly encouraged to begin by learning coding fundamentals, computational thinking, and creative design through the Scratch & Computational Thinking program (a core course) or the MakeCode & Computational Thinking program (a core course), along with elective courses such as Coding with Minecraft and Maths & General Ability. Once students become proficient in visual-based coding language, they will receive training in the world’s most in-demand programming language.

Our Python program (a core course) focuses on teaching and practising the text-based programming language, allowing students to progress through both beginner and intermediate levels. Additionally, they will have the opportunity to explore elective courses such as Make Games with Roblox and Computational and Algorithmic Thinking.

While completing the Scratch & Computational Thinking program and Python program, some students opt to participate in Australian programming competitions through the Game Programming & Australian STEM Video Game Challenge course.

Our Extension program provides students with additional opportunities to apply their Python programming skills to real-world applications and delve into topics of their interest. Within this program, all students are required to complete the Application Development in Python course. For those interested in data science and AI, we encourage further studies in the Python & AI course. For those interested in competitive Python programming, we recommend participating in the Australian Informatics Olympiad competition at the CodeKids HQ testing centre.

Students aspiring to enter the field of game development can explore courses such as Game Programming and Unity (C#). Additionally, we offer the Cybersecurity course for students who wish to specialize in this field.
