A personal website
Their own site, styled by them, live at their own address. Built in a real code editor and published by us.
// For 10 to 16 year olds
We teach kids the tech that actually matters.
Cloud, AI, Linux and software engineering, taught live by engineers who work at AWS. 90-minute sessions in a group of 6 to 8, once or twice a week.
Schools teach yesterday's tools.
The GCSE Computer Science specification was last reformed in 2016. It does not cover cloud, AI, Linux or putting software live on the internet. We use all four at work, so we teach them.
| What school covers | What your child does here |
|---|---|
| Python as worksheet exercises | Python that does a real job, then runs on a Linux server they log into |
| HTML worksheets | A website live at their own URL |
| Theory from a 2016 GCSE spec | Something of theirs live on the internet at the end of every module |
| No AI, no cloud | AI models they train and AI assistants they build; from 14, AWS in a sandbox we own |
What your child gets, week by week.
- 01
Live sessions, once or twice a week
90 minutes each, online, in a group of 6 to 8. Every session is run by an engineer who works at AWS.
- 02
A project live on the internet every module
A website, an AI character, a web app. Live at their club address, then shown to you at the Showcase: every six weeks on the twice-weekly plan, every twelve on once-weekly.
- 03
An email every Saturday
A screenshot of what they built, their XP and streak, and one question to ask them over dinner.
- 04
A portfolio and a certificate
Projects live on the internet from the first module. A GitHub portfolio from age 13. A certificate at the end of each level, earned by the final project.

“How did you teach your AI character to sound like a pirate?”
Every module, something goes live.
Four of the projects from the curriculum, as they look when a child has finished them.
An AI chatbot with a personality
A character they design, running as a web app their friends can talk to.
A Python app on their own server, hosted by us
A Linux server we host. They log in over SSH and put their code on it.
A serverless app on AWS
A small app running on Amazon Web Services, in a sandbox we own. The same pieces we use at work.
Three age levels, one clear price per session.
