Ages 11 to 13
Machines That Sense
Real circuits this time. Your child wires sensors to an Arduino and a micro:bit, reads them in code, and crosses the bridge from coloured blocks to written code without losing the thread.
Who this is for: Children aged 11 to 13. Earlier block coding helps but is not required.
Where your child is after 3 months
That is 12 lessons of 1.5 h of class, 1 lesson of 1.5 hours per week, over 3 months, across 3 months. By the end, your child will be able to:
- Read light, distance and movement with real sensors and act on them in code
- Understand current, voltage and resistance by building circuits, not by memorising them
- Move from blocks to written code without losing the thread
The tools in their hands
We would rather show you the toolbox than a testimonial. Every tool in this course is the real, widely used one, so you can look each name up and see exactly what your child will be working with.
- LEGO Education SPIKE Prime
- Arduino Student Kit
- Sensors
How the course runs
- Rhythm
- 1 lesson of 1.5 hours per week, over 3 months
- Where
- At our studio in Tangier, hands on the hardware. Robotics is not a course that works from a screen at home.
- Starts
- August 3, 2026
- The kit
- Provided in class. The kit belongs to the studio and is reused each term, so there is nothing to buy and nothing to carry home. The price covers its use.
The rung before, the rung after
Robotics at Codemia is one ladder from 8 to 18, and this course is a rung on it. If your child is outside the 11 to 13 range, the right course is the one beside it.

Built on
LEGO Education SPIKE Prime (grades 6 to 8) and the Arduino Student Kit (ages 11 to 14)
We teach a published curriculum rather than one we invented, so you can look it up and see exactly what is covered. Our contact hours run above the programme's own, because building takes longer than following along.
