Coding Classes for Kids in Vaughan: What's Available
Online classes are open to Vaughan families right now, covering all four CODEship program levels: Explorers (K-1, visual blocks), Builders (grades 2-3, HTML & CSS), Developers (grades 4-5, JavaScript), and Engineers (grades 6-8, Python, AI, and cybersecurity).

Why Project-Based Matters for Vaughan Families Choosing a Program
The biggest difference between coding programs isn't the tools they use — it's whether kids build their own projects or follow identical, copy-paste tutorials. Project-based programs produce kids who can solve new problems; tutorial-based programs produce kids who can repeat steps.
Getting Started
Families new to coding can use CODEship's program finder to match their child's age and interests to the right level, then register for the next online semester or join the Vaughan in-person waitlist.
