After School Clubs
First Coding offers a series of school clubs suitable for years 5 through to 9, covering activities such as game design and 3d printing.
Within our Scratch and Python workshops, step-by-step worksheets are developed for each session, helping students create an interesting type of game using Scratch or Python, with the provided workshop sheets. This not only gives a rewarding feeling of completion to students, but also helps to cover the basic fundamentals of programming and coding for younger pupils. And for our 3D printing workshops, in which students learn the fundamentals of 3D design, before learning how to design and print their own 3D keyrings.

GCSE Computer Science Tuition
“I cannot recommend Jez highly enough. He tutored my son who found his sessions interesting, fun and wanting to learn more.”
Group Tuition
Our popular online Computer Science tuition group is available on Tuesday evenings. This tuition group has recently helped students achieve top grades, by shoring up the work that’s being conducted in class and ensuring a good understanding of the topics required.
The cost of attending is £80 per month per person. To book, please email: hello@firstcoding.co.uk
One to One
Although our online tuition groups are kept small, a group learning environment might not suit everyone. First Coding is able to offer remote one to one tuition to help pupils get the most out of their learning.
Our one to one sessions are currently fully booked.
Alternative Provision Daytime Sessions
We have been running our Alternative Provision program for over three years now and have become one of the leading computing skills provider as part of Right Choice‘s AP program. From game design through to 3d printing and design, these daytime sessions that are hosted at a couple of our venues in Salisbury, provide children and teenagers with the confidence to explore new interests whilst providing the opportunity to learn important key skills. For all Alternative Provision enquiries, please email hello@theundergroundstudios.co.uk.
