Coding does not have to start with a screen.
For some children, coding becomes much easier to understand when they can actually see their instructions come to life.
That is what makes AlgoPlay different.
Children first build a model.
Then they create a sequence of commands.
Then they press PLAY…
and watch their creation respond.
Move forward. Turn. Stop. Switch on a light. React to a command.
And when something does not work?
They test it.
Change it.
Try again.
That is where children begin developing something much bigger than coding skills.
Logical thinking. Problem-solving. Creativity. Independence.
They are learning to look at a problem and think:
“What can I change to make this work?”
That is the kind of thinking we want children to carry with them beyond the classroom.
🧱 Build it.
💻 Code it.
▶️ Test it.
💡 Figure it out.

The most common thing working parents tell us is simple.
I want this for my child but I cannot always make weekends work.
That is exactly why we run after school sessions inside primary schools across Harborne and Sutton Coldfield.
Your child goes straight from their school day into a Young Engineers session. You collect them one hour later. No extra journey. No rearranging your evening. No added pressure on an already busy week.
In that one hour your child is not sitting and watching.
They are building real mechanical models, solving real engineering challenges, and developing skills that go far beyond what they build. Confidence. Problem solving. Creative thinking. The habit of not giving up.
Currently running after school at Chad Vale Primary in Harborne, Our Lady of Fatima in Harborne, and St. Joseph’s Catholic Primary in Sutton Coldfield.
New schools joining from September.
Not at your child’s school yet? Speak to your school coordinator or headteacher and ask them to contact us. We take care of everything. You just open the school gate.
Young Engineers is recognised by the Harvard School of Education — a hands-on STEM programme developing engineering thinking, creativity, teamwork and problem-solving through real building challenges. Available for children aged 6–12.

We have had hundreds of conversations with parents over the past year. The same misconceptions come up again and again. And almost every time, the parent who almost did not get in touch became one of our most loyal families.

STEM is much more than science, technology, engineering and maths.
It is learning how to ask questions.
How to test ideas.
How to solve problems.
That is exactly what children experience in Bricks Challenge.
Each week they build a new working model while discovering real engineering principles through hands-on learning. From gears and forces to energy and mechanical systems, every lesson encourages children to think, experiment and explore.
The models are exciting.
But the thinking they develop is even more valuable.
If your child loves asking “How does that work?”, Bricks Challenge is the perfect place to nurture that curiosity.
📍 September enrolment is now open for children aged 6–10 in Harborne and Sutton Coldfield.

Parents hear the word STEM everywhere.
But what does it actually mean?
STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics—four subjects that help children understand how the world works and how to solve real problems.
At Young Engineers, children don’t learn these ideas from a textbook.
They explore them by building, testing, experimenting and discovering how things work through hands-on engineering challenges.
Every session develops more than technical skills. It encourages curiosity, confidence, creativity and problem-solving.
Because today’s builders become tomorrow’s thinkers.
📍 Trial sessions available in Harborne & Sutton Coldfield.
