AI & Machine Learning Course for Kids
NCFE-accredited AI courses designed for kids
Give your child a head start in the fastest-growing field of our time. Through hands-on projects in AI, machine learning, and neural networks, they’ll explore how technologies like ChatGPT and self-driving cars are built. Taught by expert UK-based tutors, our courses make complex ideas fun, practical, and accessible, while earning an NCFE-accredited qualification
Coding course for kids aged 6 to 8
University-level Education
with Accredited Qualifications
Learn AI development at the world’s only academy certified to offer NCFE-accredited qualifications for children aged 6 to 16.
This course is not about using AI tools (like ChatGPT) or writing “prompts”.
It’s about building AI by training a machine using neural networks and decision trees, and to solve problems inspired by astrophysics and complex real-world systems!
Coding Courses UK: What’s In It for Your Child?
Our course is designed to teach coding in a fun and engaging way. Students will learn how to build their own games using Python and PyGame. Starting with the basics, they’ll learn game design principles, create interactive gameplay, and develop coding skills through fun projects like 2D platformers and arcade classics.
As they progress, they’ll tackle more advanced topics like AI and game optimisation. Each training course can open doors for mastery of programming languages, software development, machine learning, web development, data science, and more. Your child will also develop practical skills needed for the tech industry, such as problem-solving, patience, and persistence. We ensure fun-filled sessions every lesson day.
After a successful completion of the online coding courses, students will have a portfolio of games, well-developed tech skills, and a solid foundation in programming. Their coding knowledge and grasp of coding concepts will bring them to places. Building websites using their coding experience will be a piece of cake for them and can be a lucrative career in the tech industry.

Project-based coding education for kids
Our approach for teaching coding to kids is to ensure students have a hands-on experience. Have a look at the projects our students create!
Level 1: Project 1
For their first project, students will create a First-Person Shooter (FPS) game. This project provides a fun and engaging introduction to the basics of 3D game design.
Level 1: Project 2
For the second project, the student will create a Mario-like
Sidescroller Game. Students will be introduced
to new uses for tools they learned in project 1, as well as more complex Game mechanics!
Level 1: Project 3
In the final project, studenta will explore another Game
Genre and create a 3rd Person Shooter game. This capstone
experience completes the foundational journey, designed
to refine their skills.
Level 2: Project 1 – Part 1
For their first level 2 project the student will create an Arena
platformer game. This project is a great, and fun introduction to using custom assets.
Level 2: Project 1 – Part 2
In the second part of the project the students create the game logic and learn the basics of using animations.
The students start by learning how to use animations to create enemies, building a foundation for future projects.
Level 2: Project 2 – Part 1
In the second part of the project, the students will learn more advanced techniques of creating AI. Students will build upon their foundation and improve their skills by using Animation Notifications to create fun and responsive Artificial Intelligence (AI) characters.
Level 2: Project 2 – Part 2
In the second part of the project, the students will learn more advanced techniques of creating AI. Students will build upon their foundation and improve their skills by using Animation Notifications to create fun and responsive Artificial Intelligence (AI) characters.
Level 3: Part 1
For this final project students will create a Third person wave shooter game. This capstone project will challenge and solidify their 3D games design skills. Students will then learn to add player mechanics using blueprints, while adding plenty of visual feedback using VFX, and animations. This will include weapons, jetpack and more.
Level 3: Part 2
The second part of the project will focus on creating game
logic using blueprints and game systems. Students will learn how to create complex gameplay elements to make their game fun and engaging.
Level 3: Part 3
In this part, students will focus on learning practices for designing, developing and creating Multiple Enemy AI for
3D Games. Students will learn how to create animation blueprints for different enemy types, using animation assets and animation montages.
Level 3: Part 4
This final part will see students complete their fully fledged game, they will learn high level design principles, and the importance of play-testing and polishing games during
development.
