Coding bundled free with every Kidocode package.
One Degree, two, or all three. Every package includes the full coding curriculum. Python, JavaScript, Scratch, the whole stack. No surcharge, no add-on, no asterisk.

AI is the tool.Computational thinking is the advantage.
Coding is now public knowledge. Here is what we decided to do: make it free in every Kidocode package today, and open a free public tier of the kidOS platform to everyone soon.
Coding is the pen and paper of our time.
Nobody should charge for pen and paper.
Twelve years ago, coding was specialist knowledge you paid a private teacher to learn. Today the basics are everywhere, and AI fills in the syntax in seconds. The world moved. So we moved with it: coding rides along free with every Kidocode package, and we are opening a free public tier of the platform so anyone, member or not, can get going.
Why this matters
The skill no AI can take from your kid is computational thinking.
AI does not do magic.
Large language models do what you can articulate, cleanly. If a kid cannot describe a problem in patterns the AI can use, the output will be wrong, sometimes impossible. Computational thinking is the literacy of talking to an AI agent. Without it, the AI is a slot machine. With it, the AI is a team.
Pattern recognition transfers everywhere.
Decompose a problem. Spot the structure. Abstract the shape. Compose a step-by-step solution. Those four moves are how a kid solves a maths problem, writes an essay, fixes a broken lamp, plans a holiday, or directs an AI. It does not matter what your kid ends up doing. They will do it better than the kid who did not learn this.
Irreplaceable, not just employable.
AI-savvy makes a kid AI-proof: fluent with the tools, not afraid of them. Computational thinking is the bigger gift. It is the cognitive habit that makes them irreplaceable - the kind of human that any economy, any era, any company, will keep.
What we are NOT doing
We are not training your kid to be a professional programmer.
Most kids will not be programmers. AI already writes most of the code professional programmers ship. We teach coding because it is the most direct, most hands-on, most transferable way to learn computational thinking. Coding is the medium. Computational thinking is the message.
- Coding is the medium. Real Python, real web, real tools.
- Computational thinking is the message. The thing that stays.
- The medium is free. The message is what we charge for, embedded in the AI, Math, and Tech pillars.
What this looks like in practiceToday Coming soon
Today, and what is coming.
A free public tier of the kidOS platform.
We are opening the introductory coding tracks (Python basics, web basics) to anyone with a Kidocode account. No payment. No catch. Self-paced, runs on the same kidOS platform our members use. We will announce the launch on this page and via our parent newsletter when it is ready.

Coding is Free FAQ
You pay for the parts that need humans, the parts AI cannot replace: the AI programme, the Math programme with a personalised AI tutor, the Tech programme where kids build real things, the booking hours with real trainers for breakthroughs, the campus, and the curriculum that updates as the field moves. Coding rides along free because it is now public knowledge and we want our share back to society.
Probably not, and that is not the point. Most kids will not be programmers. AI already writes most of the code professional programmers ship anyway. We teach coding because it is the most direct way to install computational thinking, the one skill no AI can take from a person.
Coding has become public knowledge. Eleven years ago you needed a private teacher or an expensive bootcamp to get any of it. Today the basics are everywhere. We have invested eleven years building a clean, age-graded coding curriculum, so we are choosing to make it our contribution back to society rather than another paid product.
We are building it now. The first tracks (introductory Python, basic web) will be available free to anyone with a Kidocode account. We will announce the launch on this page and via our parent newsletter when it is ready.
Yes, but differently. The point is not typing syntax. The point is being able to think in patterns an AI can use, to express ideas cleanly enough that the AI returns something correct and useful. Without that, AI output is wrong or impossible. Coding is the cleanest, most hands-on way to learn this.
The ability to decompose a problem, recognise patterns, abstract them, and design a step-by-step solution that a person or a machine can execute. It transfers to maths, science, business, design, writing, sport, and anything else a kid will end up doing.
