We are based in Finland, the country with one of the best education systems in the world. Our students routinely outperform in reading, science, and mathematics learning studies globally. Furthermore, coding and robotics have become part of the Finnish national core curriculum for basic education in 2016. This means that every child will learn these skills from the 1st grade.

Our mission is to help every child to learn skills they will need in the future, so we help teachers and schools to teach these new subjects and to instill new teaching models. To do this globally, we operate via local partners in destination countries.

Secure the future for kids

How do we know what children should learn for the future? We don’t know what line of studies they will choose or kind of jobs there will be for them.

What we do know is that no matter what the future brings, kids will need skills such as abstraction, problem solving, design thinking, how to find knowledge, apply learning in practice and entrepreneurial skills. Practicing coding and building robotics helps them to develop their thinking and learning skills.

Why should kids learn coding?

Our top three reasons are:

1) Master the digital world

In today’s digital society it is important to understand how computers and software are built, how they work and what they can be used for. If you understand the basic principles of programming, you can perceive and control the world better.

2) Develop the mindset

Programming develops skills that are not directly taught in any other subject. Programming develops our reasoning and logical thinking, creating a solid foundation for all other learning.

3) Express yourself

We express ourselves via music, arts, writing or handcrafts. Programming can support and be part of all of these as well as open up new possibilities for self-expression.

Everybody should learn to program a computer, because it teaches you how to think.”

How it started

Our founder Jani is an engineer with a background at Nokia. He started running code clubs for children in 2014, first just for fun. Teaching offered inspiration and a meaningful balance for a serial entrepreneur. Eventually he became a qualified teacher too.

Our CEO Kaisu worked in IT industry for over 20 years. When Finnish schools adopted programming in 2016, as a mother of school-age kids and former programmer herself, she saw the need for new kind of teaching materials and teachers professional development program.

Meet the team

We are the leading experts for 21st century skills and for coding pedagogy. We’re teachers. We’re parents. We’re global citizens. Our idealistic dream is to bring our educational solution to the reach of millions of children and students.
