Thank you for producing the outstanding resources that you do; they have rapidly become my primary source of independent learning and have helped me to vastly increase my understanding of computer science. Gemma

The best way for young people to learn to code evolved over 20 years

TIME 2 CODE

Time 2 Code is the best way to learn to code. Not just because it is completely free for everyone, but because it includes all the established pedagogies in a scheme that is the result of our 20 years' experience in teaching teenagers with amazing results. This is the only scheme with comprehensive scaffolding and differentiation. Even better, it is compatible with Mission Encodeable too.
