Coding is the new literacy! Young children (ages 4-6) can now program their own interactive stories and games. In the process, they learn to solve problems, design projects, and express themselves creatively using tablets. Our Junior Coder program uses Scratch Jr, LEGO Robots, and more.
It heavily emphasizes kinesthetic learning, presentation skills, and key building blocks of mathematics to ease preschoolers into Primary school Math.
Developed at MIT, the Alma mater of our Founder, Scratch is an excellent starting point to coding for children ages 7 and up. A graphics-based programming language, Scratch allows young children to understand computational logic such as “If” and “Then” conditionals, Loops and Coordinates, without the need for Syntax memorization.
Developed by our team of Global industry experts, our MIT-inspired App Inventor curriculum will introduce your child to the world’s most popular mobile device platform. With a similar drag-and-drop interface as Scratch, but more input functions (e.g. GPS, gyroscope, etc.), the software enables students to create fully functional mobile Apps that run on mobile phones. Suitable for ages 10 and up.
Consistently ranked #1 as the “Most Popular Coding Language“, learning Python will enable your child to build programs that are used in many domains, such Data Science and Machine Learning (A.I.). With a strong foundation in computational thinking from our earlier graphics-based programming courses, students will now pick up the syntax and structure of Python and take their first step into real-world programming. Suitable for ages 10 and up.
Founded by an MIT Graduate, our curriculum is led and designed by our global team of technology advisors. We keep our lessons exciting and relevant, with cutting-edge themes and discoveries covered as part of the lessons.
In December 2016, Coding Lab is also voted as having the best coding curriculum by parents of students of our school in Singapore.
Our courses are designed and conducted in English. Tutors are handpicked by us not only for their tech expertise, but also for their passion in working with children. Our cosy class sizes with a small teacher-child ratio (Max 1:6 or 8) encourage close interaction between the students and the instructor and allow for individualized attention to maximise each child’s learning experience.
Imagine boardroom-style professionalism in a rustic and start-up “Garage” environment; we enhance the quality of learning by providing a geek-jam hangout where kids can tinker with the latest tech toys to further their learning independently.
At Coding Lab, we believe coding is the new literacy, and our carefully designed programs cater to children aged 4-18, offering age-appropriate learning pathways.
For ages 4-6, our Junior Coder Program introduces foundational skills through interactive platforms like Scratch Jr and LEGO Robots, emphasizing creativity, problem-solving, and early math concepts. Older children (7-9) progress to Scratch, a graphics-based programming language from MIT that simplifies computational logic. Students aged 10-12 advance to App Inventor, creating functional mobile apps with real-world features like GPS. For teens 13 and up, we teach Python, equipping them with the syntax and skills to explore data science, machine learning, and beyond.
Designed by our Global Industry Experts, Our Award-Winning MIT-inspired curriculum develops computational thinking and creativity of expression in children of all abilities.
With a strong emphasis on inquiry-based learning and the application of key mathematical concepts, we have trained thousands of students globally in Singapore, Australia, and Japan.
We have won numerous awards for Best Coding Curriculum.
– Four-Time Winner, Best Coding Curriculum (Parents’ World Magazine)
– Voted Best Coding Programme (Young Parents’ Magazine)
– Awarded Best Coding Curriculum (Singapore’s Child)
– Awarded School of The Year, Computer Science (Little Magazine)
Every child is different, and our way of teaching recognizes this. Our tutors are trained to inspire complete newbies to program, to challenging gifted students in their work. Every child can learn to code, and the Coding Lab programme is rigorously designed to fit their different ability levels and learning styles, such that every child can create programs they can be proud of.

Coding Lab teachers are often graduates of prestigious institutions, including Tokyo University. Many also bring hands-on industry experience from leading software companies such as Microsoft.
All teachers undergo intensive training in educating students the Coding Lab way, as well as the curriculum before they are assigned to a class.
Yes! We offer a free trial class where kids can explore the exciting world of coding and robotics at Coding Lab Japan. Trials are available both in-person and online.
During the trial, parents can discuss the school, schedules, and learning roadmaps with our staff. Our experienced teachers will also conduct a level assessment and provide personalized class recommendations for your child.
