Bring coding to life

Take your pupils on a coding journey! Introduce pupils to coding using visual blocks, or block coding, enabling them to master key coding concepts without having to worry about the precise syntax. Once their confidence grows, extend their skills with our HTML and Python tutorials.

Teach coding with confidence

With Discovery Education Coding, pupils will gain a secure understanding of coding concepts like algorithms, sequences and variables - as well as developing computational thinking skills through decomposition, logical reasoning and problem-solving. And, best of all, pupils and teachers alike will be able to demonstrate their creativity by creating their own apps and sharing them with their classmates and colleagues.

"The templates for children to create programs are differentiated between year groups, which is great. These give me an ideal starting point to plan lessons that are varied and show progression in coding skills for the children as they move through the school." Read full partner story »
