National coding week
Barclays Code Playground
Book your class onto one of our live coding sessions
To celebrate National Coding Week, Barclays Code Playground is running free, live coding sessions on 17 September and 18 September.
You can deliver this in your classroom or code along on one of our live sessions. Click here to book your place.
Below you will find all the resources which you need on the day, alongside a video which you can use if you are unable to join us live.
To get things started each student should have the EduBlocks platform loaded at the start of the session to make things run more smoothly.
We look forward to you joining us, and happy coding.
Introduction to EduBlocks
EduBlocks is a free tool that helps anyone learn how to code with text-based languages like Python, using familiar block coding as used in Scratch.
In this session where we’ll be using loops and functions to create a colourful spiral and be able to see what block coding looks like in Python coding language.
