Programme Overview

For Ages 10 to 12

It is never too early to build strong foundations.

As we enter the Fourth Industrial Revolution, coding skills are becoming increasingly important in providing your child with a strong advantage. Python is a widely used programming language, adopted by organisations such as Google and Amazon Web Services. It is also an ideal starting point for younger learners who are new to programming, due to its simplicity.

Course Outline

We aim to nurture the next generation of technology innovators who seek to make a positive impact. MIT App Inventor allows children to create applications with meaningful real-world impact, such as tools that help communities access safe drinking water, support language learning or contribute to public safety. Students have also created applications that monitor and improve passenger safety in the growing ride-hailing industry.

What is your average class size?

Our classes have a 1:8 teacher-to-student ratio. We keep our classes small so that every student benefits from personalised attention.

What do students need to bring to class?

We provide all equipment for the classes. Students just need to bring stationery, a water bottle and a jacket in case it gets cold.

What if a student misses a class? Is there a class replacement policy?

Unless absence is due to medical reasons, an email to specialprogrammes@thelearninglab.com.sg at least two weeks in advance is required for us to arrange a replacement class.

Depending on the lesson hours missed, you or your child may attend a replacement class or have the registration transferred to the same course at another location or time slot. Replacement classes may be conducted online or in person at Coding Lab’s campuses (KAP Mall / Parkway Parade).

Are there any prerequisites for the coding classes?

Yes, this differs for each programme. Please check the prerequisites carefully before signing up.

What if a student has done a coding class previously? Can he or she still attend your coding class?

The student may need to complete a placement test as we will need to assess his or her foundation level as the curriculum offered by other avenues may be different. We want to ensure that every student who comes to our class benefits and learn. Hence, it is vital that your child is enrolled in the right course to provide them with the right level of challenge.

I want to sign up but am unable to confirm the time slot as the school holiday schedule is not out. What should I do?

We understand the challenges of planning your child’s holiday schedule. You may proceed to sign up to secure a place and send us an email at specialprogrammes@thelearninglab.com.sg. We will do our best to accommodate requests to change time slots, subject to availability.
