Active creation
Structured project work where your child is the creator, not the audience.

Passive consumption
Imagine. Build. Improve.
From passive consumers to active creators of technology.
Turn your child’s screen time into real technical skill.
Hands-on robotics, coding and game development for ages 6–17 — guided by Mentors, evidenced by BCS qualifications.

From thousands of parent conversations
We hear the same five things, every week.
After years of Free Tech Assessments and family calls, the conversation rarely changes. Parents describe one of these five — and Robocode flips each into something concrete.

Identity from making
Real competence and named outcomes — not validation from a screen.

What makes Robocode different
Not a coding club. A pathway.
Children join at six and stay through GCSEs. Every step is structured, evidenced, and shaped to one child at a time.
GCSE-equivalent qualifications
BCS Level 1 and Level 2 — recognised by schools, colleges and employers. Pupils have completed GCSE Computer Science aged 11 and 12.
Self-paced, by design
Your child is not stopped by the slowest student in the class, and is not too rushed by the fastest. Each child works through their own course.
Small groups, consistent teachers
Maximum 8 per class, with the same instructor every week. Calmer for SEND children. Better for everyone.
Real builds, not slideshows
Arduino robots, drones, custom PCBs, working games. Children take home things they built — and the skills to build the next one.
Two programmes, one journey
Where does your child fit?
Ages 6–9
Younger Programme
Monthly hands-on projects in robotics and game development. Builds curiosity, confidence and the foundational thinking patterns that carry into the Older Programme.
- Visual block-based coding + Arduino basics
- Roblox Studio and Minecraft Education
- New build every month — never repetitive
- No prior experience needed
Ages 10–17
Older Programme
Structured progression through robotics, game development, cybersecurity, AI and 3D printing — leading to BCS Level 1 & 2 (GCSE-equivalent) and, for those ready, full GCSE Computer Science.
- Arduino, C++, Python, Unity, Unreal, Kali Linux
- BCS Level 1 & 2 (GCSE-equivalent)
- AQA GCSE Computer Science preparation
- Switch tracks any time — no choice paralysis
Things they’ve built
Built by students, mentored by us.
The drone, the self-balancing robot, the line-follower, the game on Roblox — every one of them was designed and built by a child at Robocode.

The Free Tech Assessment is a one-hour session with our team. Your child tries the work; we give you a written recommendation on the right pathway. No commitment, no sales pitch.
