About Digital Skills
Digital Skills is our track for younger students who want to build practical technology skills alongside their core academic subjects, not instead of them. It currently covers two programmes: Web Development for Kids and AI & Python for Kids.
Unlike our exam-board subjects, Digital Skills is not tied to a curriculum or an exam board. Lessons are project-based, so students build real things — simple websites, small programs, basic AI experiments — rather than studying theory for a test. Every tutor specialises in teaching young learners, and lessons are paced to match how children actually learn.
Most families use Digital Skills as an early, low-pressure introduction to coding and technology, well before it becomes part of formal exams like GCSE Computer Science. Both programmes run as live, one-to-one online lessons, so a tutor is watching your child code in real time and can catch mistakes immediately.
Who is Digital Skills for?
Digital Skills suits families looking for a practical, low-pressure introduction to technology. Consider it if your child fits one of these profiles:
- Curious learners who enjoy building and creating, not just studying theory
- Students with no prior coding experience looking for a genuine beginner starting point
- Families wanting a technology skill that complements core academic subjects, not replaces them
- Learners considering GCSE Computer Science later, who want an early, low-pressure introduction first
- Families who want live progress reporting, not ad hoc homework help
Digital Skills Subjects
Two beginner-friendly programmes designed specifically for young learners.
A Teaching Approach Built for Digital Skills
Digital Skills has no fixed syllabus. Every programme starts from what your child wants to build, then works backwards to the skills needed to build it. A tutor sets short, achievable goals for each lesson, so progress is visible week to week rather than measured by a test.
Lessons run live and one to one, in your local time zone. Your child writes real code in every session while the tutor watches, corrects mistakes as they happen, and explains a concept again whenever it has not landed. Every lesson is recorded and uploaded to the Centaurus Academy LMS, so you can review it at any time.
