How they Work
The Best of Topics
We've chosen the best of recent Tech Camp courses and redesigned them to be run over video sessions. From Game programming, to Web design, Python, Artificial Intelligence, Robotics and our regular 'Tech Club' for younger campers, there's something for everyone.
The Best of Tutors
We've brought together the best of our tutors to instruct and help the students. They're typically recent graduates or undergraduates studying Engineering or Computer Science at leading Russell-group Universities. Of course they're chosen for their communication and technical skills and have Enhanced DBS checks for working with children.
The Best of Sessions
Engaging learning must be hands-on. Our 'At Home' programme offer a mix of video tutoring, collaborative learning and self-paced project work during and after the session to make sure that learning is deep, engaging and lasting. Choose a style that works for you - regular weekly classes, daily 1 hr-slots, or our '2+2hr' daily option during half terms and holidays.

FAQs
What do I need to participate?
A PC or Mac computer and webcam with microphone and speakers. Any recent laptop will have an inbuilt webcam, microphone and speakers. You'll also need a broadband internet connection.
What experience is needed?
Should my child do anything to prepare for the course?
Will they be with similar-aged children?
What if my internet connection isn't fast enough?
What do they need to do after the session finishes?
Can you guarantee that there'll be exactly 2 hours of work after each session?
Just left my boys’ first Tech Camp. They’ve been at the Chelsea camp all week doing game design in Unity. They loved it and are thinking of doing the robot making one next year. Really professional and helpful staff. Very happy kids.
