About the job

Our focus is on getting kids ready for a successful future. Already, 67% of new jobs in STEM are in computing, and the importance of technology in industry is only going to increase. Our award-winning coding curriculum helps to get children future-ready by not only teaching them how to code, but also developing core skills such as creativity, communication and collaboration. We use creative themes to deliver a fun and unique learning experience - making coding more engaging and accessible for children, and to help them understand the role that technology plays in science, industry, art, architecture and much more. All of our lessons include a topic and a project from one of our themes, to teach the students a little more about the world around them, and to help trigger their curiosity and imagination. Our Stem.org accredited curriculum is designed to teach a firm foundation in computer science, above and beyond what children learn in school. We give children a methodical and cumulative education that builds their skills in coding, communication, collaboration, creativity and flexibility. From 6-12 we ensure every child learns at a pace that’s right for them, in a range of coding languages, and they are rewarded with certificates at each level. Our creative themes add excitement, interest and relevance to computer science subjects to help kids engage and enjoy coding.
