“Everybody should learn to program a computer… because it teaches you how to think.” – Steve Jobs

In a world shaped by Artificial Intelligence (AI) and cutting-edge technology, the ability to code has become a crucial life skill. At Coding Lab, we are passionate about empowering the next generation with the tools to not just participate, but to lead in this tech-driven future.

Founded by an MIT alumnus with Silicon Valley experience, Coding Lab has been recognized for its award-winning curriculum that has ignited the passion for coding in thousands of students since our launch in 2015. From Singapore to Australia, Japan, and Malaysia, we have consistently nurtured bright young minds, guiding them from beginners to experts.

A Curriculum That Goes Beyond Coding

Our classes cater to students aged 5 to 18, with each age group receiving a carefully crafted learning experience. Whether your child is looking to explore the basics of coding or is preparing for Direct School Admissions (DSA) and local/international competitions, our curriculum is designed to equip them with skills that matter. We don’t just teach coding – we foster problem-solving, critical thinking, and creativity, preparing our students for the jobs of tomorrow.

Moreover, we empower students to solve real-world problems. Our students not only learn to code, but they are also challenged to think critically about how to apply their knowledge to solve community problems. Many of our students participate in local and international coding competitions and hackathons, where they put their skills to the test and win prestigious awards.

Age-Specific Learning that Engages and Excels

• Ages 7 to 9: Young learners dive into coding with MIT Scratch, creating games, animations, and exploring subjects like Robotics, Augmented Reality, and even Maths, Biology, Music, and Art. Each lesson is fun, interactive, and connects coding with real-world applications, ensuring that learning is engaging and meaningful.
• Ages 10 to 12: Students advance by developing community-impacting apps using MIT App Inventor, while integrating AI and Python basics. Our students have built apps such as health trackers and educational quizzes, which tackle global challenges like the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
• Ages 13 to 18: Teens master Python, one of the world’s most in-demand programming languages. They learn advanced topics such as Data Analytics, Web Development, Game Development, and Machine Learning. Projects include building AI-powered solutions like disease detectors or creating websites that raise awareness of global issues.

“My son has been with The Coding Lab for a long time, since Primary 3.

I love how structured their curriculum is, the way the highly qualified teachers explain concepts sometimes abstract math ones (required for coding) he had not learned in school in a very clear and understandable way. I also appreciate the timely reports we receive after every lesson on what was taught and how the students can further develop themselves in the current area learnt.

As he does online lessons now, sometimes I overhear what is being discussed in class when I walk past and I like how the teachers discuss topics with them in a way to pique their interest and engage them in class. There is a lot of open discussion and the teachers are very knowledgeable in answering all the questions floating around in class.

Definitely this is one class my son looks forward to despite his very busy schedule. The lessons here have grounded him well in the fundamentals and way beyond in coding as he is now way advanced in this subject vis a vis others his age. Thumbs up”

“A highly Recommended Experience!

This was a very structured program. The kids had lots of fun and yet learnt a lot. Parents were also brought along the journey so we could have great conversations with our kids on what they did. Highly recommended!”
~Goh, Parent

“I’m heartened to see him so excited about learning!

My son has enjoyed every lesson at Coding Lab. He comes home each time, explaining what he has learnt (but the coding language is beyond me). He looks forward to every class, and I’m heartened to see him so excited about learning this because of Coding Lab! Thank you to the teachers and school for making coding so enjoyable for my son!”
~Sara, Parent

“It’s an excellent investment for your child’s future!

My son, Bryon has been a happy learner at Coding Lab since year 2022. Bryon has benefited greatly from a supportive and encouraging environment. The step-by-step guidance, interactive exercises and constructive feedbacks from his instructors have all played crucial roles in his development by far. Overall, Bryon’s coding journey from Scratch 1 to the Young Computer Scientists Program and now to the App Inventor Program has been nothing short of inspiring. I would highly recommend this coding program to any parent! It’s an excellent investment in your child’s future, providing them with essential skills and a strong foundation in technology!“
~Shavon, Parent
