Coding and Robotics
Equipping rural and township learners with the skills to change the world
We empower our learners to become innovators in STEAM fields, leaders in their communities and builders of their own futures through exposure to coding and robotics.
Learning to code builds confidence and problem-solving skills right from the start. Partner with iSchoolAfrica and together we can help learners prepare for the future, no matter what career they pursue.
iSchoolAfrica brings to schools Apple’s Everyone Can Code Curriculum – making real coding accessible, from ECD to higher education. The programme introduces learners to the world of coding and app design through interactive puzzles and code walk‑throughs.
