Now we might be biased but online coding clubs are pretty cool… But, I hear you ask, why? WELL dear reader let me explain!
Our first major point is that a lot of us are comfortable in our own homes, so why not do a great activity and learn some great skills from our mentors, all without having to brave whatever the British weather is trying to do on any particular day!
Personalised Learning
Maybe you enjoy consistency and building relationships? Our online clubs pair you up with a STEM certified mentor! Allowing you work together to have your needs in the session personalised week on week, and making it easier to learn your way!
Join From Anywhere
Another excellent thing, and a great reason to join, is that because it’s all online you don’t have to be in the same place every week to join a session!
We know, especially with the summer holidays coming up, that you might be out visiting family or going on holiday, but maybe you don’t want to miss a session? Well as long as you have internet, you can get on and get stuck into your sessions, wherever you are!
Have Fun & Learn New Skills
A final reason for you to consider, above all others, is that our online coding clubs are genuinely really great fun, and we all love having fun and learning new skills at the same time.
If you agree or want to see for yourself, sign up and try out one of our free taster sessions!
About The Code Zone
The Code Zone teaches children aged 6 to 16 to code by building their own games. Outside the UK that is the Game Dev Academy: self-paced, so a child works at whatever hour suits them in any time zone, with a background-checked, STEM-certified mentor answering by text and video message.
It started in Britain, where in 2026 it was the highest-placed coding club in Club Hub UK's Top 100 Children's Activity Providers, and in 2025 received the Autism Inclusion Award from the National Autistic Society, the UK's leading autism charity. More than a third of members are autistic or have ADHD, based on what parents tell us when they join.

The blog is in two halves. Guides are the evergreen explainers written by the mentors who teach the clubs, covering the questions parents actually ask: what comes after Scratch, how to support a coding-mad child when you cannot code yourself, and what works for autistic and ADHD children.
Club news is the other half, and it is where posts like this one live: game jams, Minecraft builds and weekly roundups, written up by whoever ran the session. Neither is marketing. If you want to know what the work actually looks like before you sign up to anything, club news is the more honest read of the two.
