Overview

I Belong student events aim to inspire key students, particularly girls, to pursue computer science and raise awareness of related careers

This in-person event is run in partnership with Primary Coding League for schools in and around York.

Schools are invited to bring teams of five pupils (year 5 and 6) to compete in a live coding tournament at the National STEM Learning Centre, York. Pupils will take part in a series of exciting coding challenges, working together to solve problems, develop their digital skills and compete for fantastic prizes!

Teams will:

  • Experience four hands-on coding challenges, each designed to test creativity, teamwork and computational thinking.
