Get ready for an exciting adventure in computer games design programming! Our NCFE accredited course will teach students how to create their very own games using the powerful language of Python. Did you know that some of the biggest tech giants, including Microsoft, NASA, Google, Facebook, and Netflix, all use Python in their development processes?

By the end of the course, your child will have completed multiple projects and games that they can proudly share with friends and family. Plus, these projects will make a great addition to any school or college portfolio! Not only will this course enhance your child's coding abilities, but it will also help to sharpen their soft skills, such as creative thinking, problem-solving, and self-confidence. Let the fun begin!

What will your child learn in the programme?

This course offers a two-fold learning experience for your child, encompassing both technical and soft skills. The technical skills they'll acquire in coding, machine learning, and creating interactive applications will serve them well beyond the realm of gaming, translating to industries like finance, aerospace, and medical engineering. But it doesn't stop there - your child will also hone their creative thinking and problem-solving abilities, skills that will prove invaluable in everyday life.

Technical Skills

Our computer games design programming course offers an extensive range of technical skills that will enable your child to learn coding, machine learning, and how to create interactive applications. These skills are not only useful in the gaming industry but also in finance, aerospace, and medical engineering. Additionally, your child will develop their creative thinking and problem-solving abilities, which will be beneficial in their everyday life. The course covers 3D level design, game physics, artificial intelligence, character design, user interface, scripting, 3D modelling, texturing, material design, asset creation, concept design, and animation. These 3D game design classes are tailored for children aged 9 to 16, with or without tech experience. We offer weekend online coding classes and after-school classes to accommodate your schedule.
