My son has been attending Graphite Academy for his coding lessons since May 2025, and even after more than a year, he still looks forward to every class! I really like that the programme includes tests and grading, as it gives parents a clear understanding of their child’s progress and the level they are currently at. It’s great to see him enjoying his lessons while continuing to learn and improve. Overall, we’ve had a very positive experience with Graphite Academy!

FAQ's about the Beginners Course

Should coding be introduced in primary education?

Yes. Learning coding at a young age helps children develop problem-solving, logical thinking, creativity, and digital literacy skills that support their learning across subjects.

Absolutely. Our coding classes are designed for beginners and introduce coding concepts through fun, interactive, and age-appropriate activities.

The best class depends on your child’s age, experience, and learning goals. We assess each student and recommend the most suitable programme for their level.

Students typically begin with block-based programming such as Scratch before progressing to text-based languages like Python and other coding platforms as they advance.

Students create interactive games, animated stories, quizzes, simulations, robotics projects, and simple apps while learning coding concepts through hands-on activities.

Coding helps children build computational thinking, creativity, confidence, teamwork, and problem-solving skills while preparing them for future studies and technology-driven careers.
