We run an after school club in the Spring term for year 5s and 6s to improve their coding skills and design a game that will be submitted into the Young Coders Competition. This is a fantastic opportunity for young people to gain hands-on experience in coding with Scratch.
Last year we had 10 entries, a mix of individuals and teams.
By participating in this competition, the children get a chance to become the Young Coders Crew and get their work showcased the following year on our YouTube channel, Scratch winners list and during any future events we may do. Each winning child will receive a personalised certificate. Every entry will receive certificates of participation and feedback from the judges.
Both the winning UK primary (UK school years 4,5 and 6 - aged 7 to 11) and secondary schools (UK school years 7 and 8 - aged 11 to 13) will also receive Prize Money:
