Code Avengers courses teach critical 21st century skills, including computer programming, critical thinking, and problem solving. Students learn how to logically sequence events, create playable games, and model real situations. They also learn computational thinking by developing algorithmic and design thinking abilities. Once students have a strong grasp of the fundamentals, they can transition to learning programming languages, such as JavaScript and Python and web languages such as HTML5 and CSS3, or build their theoretical knowledge with our Computer Science and Design courses on a Code Avenger PRO account.

We aim to provide confidence for all learners to not only navigate but thrive in the digital world. Our learning activities are accessible and flexible to the needs of diverse learners, with characters, themes and activities that all children can relate to.
