Spark4Kids is offering online GCSE courses for Year 10 and Year 11 students planning to take the GCSE Computer Science exam. The material and topics covered in these courses are mostly exam-board agnostic, applying to all UK exam boards (with a few exceptions which will be highlighted during the course).
This course has an accompanying free Taster Session for you to explore.
The Typing 4 Kids course is for children either looking to take their first steps in learning how to touch-type, or looking to improve on their existing typing skills.
Using a gamified approach to learning to type, the challenges start out simple and progressively become more advanced. Using games, levels, badges, stars and leader boards, children learn to type interactively, building up their muscle memory and increasing accuracy and word-speed. Good seating posture and hand-placement are strongly encouraged during the sessions, ensuring a comfortable experience all round. Note that these weekly sessions are led by a LIVE!, remote tutor who is able to provide attendees guidance in real-time, along with progress reviews during the sessions.
