Years 1 - 2
Children in KS1 will be studying our exhilarating Coding in Space and Coding with Animals. Our new, exciting ’Coding in Space’ module takes place on various websites where children continue to learn the fundamentals of coding in a space-themed environment. Pupils will complete space missions involving stars and rockets using various coding skills such as loops, events and conditionals. In our fun Animal Coding module, children learn coding in an engaging and rewarding environment that utilises gaming elements to teach programming concepts. Some of the activities also teach text-based coding so children learn to program like a real developer.
Years 3 -6
Children in KS2 will be studying our thrilling Coding in Space and Augmented Reality. Our new, exciting ’Coding in Space’ module takes place on various websites where children continue to learn the fundamentals of coding in a space-themed environment. Pupils will complete space missions involving stars and rockets using various coding skills such as loops, events and conditionals. In our ‘Augmented Reality’ module, children design, build and code holographic images which they blend into the real world and view through our VR headsets.
Debate KS2
Our Debate and Public Speaking clubs are a fun way for children to develop the confidence to articulate their ideas and viewpoints in a public forum. They will learn how to generate ideas, defend their opinions and challenge existing paradigms. With clear links to the national curriculum for English, this club can be a great way to support the children’s learning and progress in their school attainment targets too.
Creative Me
- Reception
Our Creative Me club is aimed at younger children who want to have fun and get creative. We’ll be mainly doing Baker Ross-style arts & crafts and mixing in some drama, fine art and computational creative art.
Mad Science
Children in our Mad Science clubs will be studying our fun & engaging ‘Constructional Engineering ’ and 'Atomic Matter' module. Constructional Engineering is a design-and-build module where children work in pairs and groups to complete a series of challenges with limited resources. Pupils develop skills in critical thinking, evaluation, and reflective thinking.
