For schools

A teaching operating system for Python in your classroom.

Coding Pathway combines a pedagogically engineered, scaffolded learner pathway with school-grade oversight, so students progress clearly and teachers can intervene early.

Built for UK secondary classrooms, quick setup, and multi-teacher oversight rather than one-off coding practice.

Teacher workflow

Built for everyday classroom use.

Teachers use Coding Pathway to set work, review code, scan class movement, and follow up before gaps widen. Adaptive teaching without the admin overhead.

Set classwork, homework, and revision with trophy goals

A trophy goal gives the whole class one clear target that any pathway step counts towards. Twenty trophies before the bell, sixty by next lesson: it fits the way lessons actually run.

Teach with lessons and live code

Write starter code and instructions once, share it with a class so students can return to it any time, or broadcast your code live to every student's screen.

See progress, gaps, and who needs support

Class matrices, student drill-down, and practical insight signals help you decide who needs support and what adaptive teaching looks like in practice.

Workspaces & lessons

A browser Python IDE, with the teaching layer built around it.

Every student gets a persistent Python workspace that runs in the browser. No installs, no setup, nothing for IT to maintain. Teachers design lessons on top of it, deliver them live, and review the results without collecting a single file. Lessons also share by link, so a lesson can travel to a worksheet, a colleague, or a teaching community, and any teacher can copy it for their own classes.

Write a lesson once, use it everywhere

Author instructions and starter code as a lesson, with AI tools to tidy a pasted worksheet or draft instructions for you. Share it with a class as a resource students return to any time, or set it as work with hand-in when a deadline matters.

Model code live to the whole class

Broadcast your code as you write it. Students watch it update in real time, then copy the lesson into their own workspace with one tap and carry on themselves.

A library of projects students pick up themselves

Over a hundred ready-to-go projects, from first turtle drawings to games, coding challenges, and real data analysis. Ideal as extension work and for the students who want more.

Review code like you would mark a book

Move student-to-student with one key, pin comments to exact lines, see what changed since yesterday, and award trophies for good work. Students see the feedback, reply, and act on it.

Department fit

Visibility that supports intervention, not just observation.

Teachers can see who is moving, who is stuck, who needs feedback, and where follow-up should happen next. The point is timely action, not more dashboard watching.

Consistent delivery across classes

Run the same structured model across classes and teachers, with school-owned content and a pathway that stays coherent for students.

Google and Microsoft sign-in

Students and teachers sign in with the school accounts they already have. No new passwords to create, manage, or reset.

Evidence for review and inspection

Progress views, feedback history, and exportable summaries support internal review, intervention planning, and inspection conversations.

From the pilot

Already proving itself in real classrooms.

Coding Pathway grew to its current pilot entirely by word of mouth, teachers recommending it to teachers. Students use it in lessons, for homework, and on their own time. We honestly have not found anything else that does this whole job for computing teachers.

say the step-by-step pathway makes hard topics easier
“It's been really good for setting homework. The Y10s have got very competitive with the trophies and it's allowed high-attaining students to push forward as far as they like. I've also seen progress with lower-attaining students, because they've been able to complete self-paced practice which has given them confidence in lessons. The teacher tools give you a really good insight into both progress and effort.”

Safeguarding and AI

No student-facing AI. By design.

Students never see AI anywhere on Coding Pathway: no chatbots, no AI hints, no generated answers. It is a founding principle, not a setting. AI assists exist only for staff, as authoring and feedback-drafting aids, and their output is reviewed by a teacher before any student sees it. That stance is consistent with the direction of DfE guidance on generative AI in schools, and it means adopting Coding Pathway never opens an AI-governance question for your school.

  • School-scoped data with UK GDPR-aware handling and clear access controls
  • Google and Microsoft SSO, with no separate student passwords
  • Staff-facing AI tools are optional, school-controlled, and human-reviewed
How schools adopt it

Start with one class. Grow into a department workflow.

Coding Pathway is intentionally usable at small scale first. Departments can begin with one teacher or one class, then expand while keeping the learner experience students already know and the routines teachers already use.

  • Start with one class, then expand across a department without changing the learner experience.
  • Use the free learner pathway first, then add the teacher operating layer where oversight matters most.
  • Support lessons, homework, revision, intervention, and weekly review from the same platform.
