From following steps to designing behaviour — your first real programs.
Who it is for
Comfortable with basic logic and simple flowcharts, and just starting to read Python.
What students can do afterwards
- Understand and structure a sense → decide → act pipeline
- Move fluidly between block-based and Python programming
- Design and run a 10–15 step multi-step robot task
Course structure
Lesson by lesson.
The lesson-by-lesson outline for this level is published before the level opens.
How lessons run
Learning robots by seeing and controlling
For students starting from zero. They see how the robot moves, build intuition by dragging blocks instead of typing syntax, and watch code turn into physical movement within seconds.
- All robots and computers are provided in class — students do not need to bring anything.
- Classes are kept small so every student gets hands-on time with the robot in every lesson.
- One lesson a week, so a level runs for about 12 weeks.
Final project
Autonomous Obstacle Avoidance
The robot senses what is in front of it, decides on its own, and finds its way through without being driven.
Course fee
This fee is announced when the level opens.

Frequently asked questions
Does my child need to bring anything?
No. The robot, the computers and all teaching materials are provided in class. Students only need to bring themselves, and a water bottle is always a good idea.
My child has never written a program. Can they still join?
Yes. Level 1 assumes no programming experience at all. Students start by seeing and controlling the robot, and only move into programming once the robot already feels familiar.
How many students are in a class?
Classes are kept small so that every student gets hands-on time with the robot in every lesson.
What happens if my child misses a lesson?
Missed lessons are not refunded or carried over. Where a recording or a make-up arrangement is possible, we will let you know by email.
Can we get a refund if we change our mind?
Yes, within the limits set out in our refund policy — please see the Terms & Conditions page for the exact periods.
Can parents sit in on the class?
Parents are very welcome at the final showcase lesson. During regular lessons we keep the room focused on the students — email us if you would like to observe and we will arrange it.
