• All 324 projects are worth 2.4M Rupees and all those lessons are offered free for any student, teacher or any other person.

• 100 projects which are under the first stage of DP Education Coding School, takes about 100hrs (4 1/2) days to complete. Therefore, to study one project completely, it takes about an hour.

• You can connect any number of students for this course. There's no limitations for that.

• Students from grade one to any grade could be connected to this. Anyone who likes to study Programming Languages and anyone who wants to be a Software Engineer can join this and study. The reason for this is Coding sets the basic foundation for Programming.

• Coding paves the way for one's child to do a job with a higher monthly salary. By learning coding and getting basic knowledge of Programming Languages, your child can work in jobs like Web Developer, Computer Programmer, Data Scientist in the future. Apart from that, according to the global job ranking, the highest employment trend is are in the fields of Software and Computer Programming.

• Coding is the commands you give to a computer. This is done using the Programming Languages.

• Currently, you have the capacity to do projects from 1-80. Expect all 320 projects of DP Coding School in future.

• Instructions have been given on how to carry out the projects step by step for all the projects.

• You will be offered free a digital certificate per each 08 projects of DP Coding School.

• As mentioned above, a digital certificate will be offered per every 08 projects. If someone completes half of the 08 steps they can get the certificates awarded once. In addition, the child will get critical thinking and the ability to solve logical problems.

• You need a Gmail account or a Facebook account to register on code.org website. If a child is 13 years old or below, the account can be created via Gmail. For this, you should select "Create an account for my child option" from Gmail creating platform.
• If not, parents can use their Gmail address to enter code.org website.
• If the child is 13 years old or above the account can be created in normal method.
• For the first stage of the project kindly select students of the school already with an email account.

• Coding improves child's problem solving and computer based thinking skills. Apart from that it improves communication and group building skills.

• Through game designing and animation projects, DP Coding School easily teaches small children to code successfully to the end. When children start DP Education School, they get taught coding via video tutorials on visual drag and drop code blocks that develop language programming syntax skills.

• Through block coding knowledge children gained from the DP Education School, they will be able to develop games, tell stories and create projects. In this way, children's learning and creativity get strengthened.

• DP Education Coding School provides children with a structured learning path via simple and well focused interactive videos and learning paths.

• DP Education Coding School guides young children through programming concepts like loops, conditional logic, sequence and algorithm based thinking using visual code blocks. In initial lessons, children are presented with a set of proper blocks which are needed to produce the activities. To acquire the desired results children should apply these blocks correctly. As children gain the necessary skills to handle more complex situations, they are given more blocks. At the end, that will lead to the d.i.y (D.I.Y method) where they are able to create their own projects.

• Any child with a mobile phone with a basic internet connection, a tablet or a computer, can join with DP Education Coding School.
