1:1 PERSONALISED PROGRAMME · AGES 8–18

One child. One plan. One teacher.

We assess your child first — then write a learning plan built from our six-course ladder, paced to them, and teach it 1:1. No fixed syllabus. No batch to keep up with. The outcome is decided before the first paid session.

HOW IT WORKS

Assess. Plan. Teach. Adjust.

  1. 1

    Free 45-minute assessment

    Not a quiz. Your child builds something small with Ajay watching — how they think, where they get stuck, what lights them up. Then ten minutes with you about goals.

  2. 2

    A written learning plan

    Within 48 hours: their starting rung, three milestones, the exact projects drawn from our ladder, and a weekly cadence. You read it before paying a rupee.

  3. 3

    1:1 live sessions, 2× a week

    60 minutes each, with the founder, on your child's schedule. Screen shared, code reviewed line by line, every project deployed to their own URL.

  4. 4

    Plan reviewed every 4 weeks

    A short progress note to you every month, and a re-assessment every 8 weeks. The plan moves when your child moves — faster, slower, or sideways into what they care about.

  5. 5

    Outcomes, not hours

    Each milestone is a thing they can show: a live game, a deployed app, a presentation. The plan ends when the outcome exists, not when the calendar says so.

THE ASSESSMENT

What we actually look at

A test would tell us what your child has memorised. We want to know how they build. So the assessment is a short build task — a small game or animation — with Ajay alongside, followed by a conversation with you.

  • Where they are: logic, sequencing, debugging instinct — observed, not tested
  • What they love: games, art, science, making things for people — the plan is built around it
  • How they learn: fast-and-messy or careful-and-thorough; both work, the pacing differs
  • What you want: confidence, a portfolio, college prep, or simply better screen time
  • Where they could go: which rung of the ladder to start on and what the first milestone is
OUTCOMES

The plan draws from six proven courses

Every 1:1 plan is assembled from the projects and outcomes of our ladder — so the destination is concrete, and the path is your child’s own.

Level 1 · Start hereCODE STARTERAges 8–10

Your child will leave with a live website, an app on a parent’s phone, and a portfolio of 5+ projects they presented at Show Day — with the words to explain how they built each one.

Course details Level 2 · BuildPYTHON BUILDERAges 11–13

Your child will leave fluent in Python — with games, physics and maths simulations, a live website and a first 3D scene on their own URL — ready to choose a specialist track with confidence.

Course details Level 3 · TrackGAME DEVAges 13–16

Your child will leave with a portfolio of complete games — physics, levels, sound, multiplayer — and a mobile game installed on their own phone they can show their friends.

Course details Level 3 · TrackWEB + APPAges 13–16

Your child will leave with a live website real people use, a mobile app on their phone, and a real client who paid attention to what they built.

Course details Level 3 · TrackAI BUILDERAges 13–16

Your child will leave able to design and ship an AI-powered product — live on the web and on their phone — and able to explain the machine learning behind it, not just the API call.

Course details Level 4 · ShipCAPSTONEAges 15–18

Your teenager will leave with one real product launched to real users, a merged open-source contribution, and a written portfolio — the exact artefacts college applications and first internships ask for.
