We’re called Jam Coding, but we actually teach all things digital. That’s important because whilst a lot of young people love coding others prefer the creative side of digital skills. We cater for all young people.
“We’re called Code Coaches because we teach skills, these skills should be practiced and developed in the same way you would practice a sport, the exciting thing is that these skills will definitely lead to huge opportunities. There is a very significant chance your child will become a professional coder, designer, digital engineer or architect. So why not start learning these skills now?” Jenny Talbot, Learning and Development Manager
Our workshops encourage children to use their imagination and come up with new ideas, possibilities and solutions
To make our learners feel valued, we encourage them to voice their ideas and listen to the opinions of others.
Working as part of a team, our learners can share ideas and learn from one another.
We help children grow their confidence, giving them the skills they need to take on new tasks with ease.
Interest in digital subjects has declined at an alarming rate over recent years, yet demand for those subjects and skills is at a record high. In fact, 82% of jobs in the UK today list digital skills as a REQUIREMENT. We believe that digital skills are life skills. We’re not career advisors, but we know how important it is for young people to see the fun, rewarding opportunities that a career in digital can provide.
We work with young people at just the right ages to help them develop a passion for digital subjects, inspiring them to continue learning and developing their skills throughout their education. We use 8 different coding environments at Jam Coding, and pupils who graduate from our workshops code at a Key Stage higher than their peers.
When we talk about life skills we of course teach the tech side of things but also get the young people attending our workshops to think about our four core elements: Creativity, Communication, Collaboration & Confidence.
Creativity and problem solving is a key part to doing well within the digital arena. Inventing new tech, finding smarter or more efficient ways to do things all represent great opportunities.
We also find this works best when given the opportunity to share ideas and thoughts. Collaboration in the digital sphere is huge, the best computer games are made by people from all around the world sharing the same objective and working together to deliver it! That’s why all our coders work in teams. By working in teams, they can learn from one another in a fun, effective way and produce better outcomes.
Does your child love all things digital? Why not treat them to something a little bit different this year?
Tell us what aspect of computing your child enjoys and we’ll bring along all the equipment needed for a funfilled day with friends.
From Minecraft, to Stop Motion Animation, to Gamebuilding, our workshops are guaranteed to make the day a hit whilst your child and their friends unknowingly learn new digital skills. You arrange the location, we’ll bring the entertainment!
I would highly recommend the Jam Coding workshops. My daughter (age 7) has recently completed a course at Euxton Primrose Hill and she thoroughly enjoyed it - so much so that she was disappointed when I told her the last session was last Monday. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. 5 stars from me 😊

Brilliant after-school club at St Joseph's Wrightington. My son can't wait for each term to go to the sessions. Brilliant class. Highly recommended - 5 stars!

Alfie is absolutely thrilled to attend your classes and comes out of school with so much excitement and enthusiasm for coding. Thank you for all you’re doing. Tonight he wanted me to share these videos with you as he wanted to continue the coding learning throughout tea time and afterwards too.

My child has been attending for a year now and loves going...He learns a lot too! The staff are very knowledgeable and helpful. Thank you Jam Coding!

First and foremost, all our sessions are fun! We want to engage children in learning about coding and computing and that’s what our sessions are designed to do. They will work in teams to develop their collaboration, creativity and communication skills, as well as the confidence to become good digital citizens.
Unfortunately not. Although we would love to accept childcare vouchers, Jam Coding is classed as a tutoring company so it is not something we are able to offer at this time.
Of course. We take a register at the beginning of each session to ensure that every child is there, then we see them off at the end. At the time of booking, we always ask how the child will be getting home so that we know what and who to expect. During the sessions, the children work in teams and no child is ever left out.
We aim to be fully inclusive as an organisation. Indeed we often will welcome children attending their first ever out of school club because it is the first time they have seen something they are interested in. When you sign up to a course you will be asked for medical conditions and any extra support. We will do what we can to support your child. If they require extra support in their school lessons then we would request that we look at achieving this in the clubs too.
