Excellent camp that my child thoroughly enjoyed

My child attended a half term camp. It was really fun for her and she has developed a love of coding. She came out happy each day, and wants to do more!

3D Game Design

My 10-year old son attended this course each morning of half-term. He was a little apprehensive to begin with but the instructor (Sam) was very friendly and able and put him at ease. My son said that the lessons flew just like when he's actually gaming!

Hello Gabriele enjoyed the class especially last day when he had the chance to do a one to one lesson. He found in the beginning some difficulties to find the right buttons to press, perhaps is due to the fact that this was his first camp. Overall a nice experience. Let's see if he wants to join

Excellent first time on virtual course for 11yo

My son really enjoyed the Roblox Lua Coder course, part 1. He'd done a bit of Scratch coding at school and tried some other coding here and there, but this really taught him the fundamentals. The small group size meant he progressed fast, and he found the lessons engaging and fun. I highly recommend

My son enjoyed the camp overall. He told me that he was understanding and keeping up with the pace. I think a couple of challenges were tricky towards the end of the week but he was able to ask for and received help. I think it was relevant to his current stage of his KS3 computer science course at

REVIEW FROM EMAIL

I did provide verbal feedback to one of your colleagues after the course but I'll try and summarise it, seems a long time ago already! Sophocles had been looking forward to the course for months and he enjoyed his time. The first morning was a little frustrating as despite the reminders you had sent

More

FunTech Response


Thank you for taking the time to provide us with your valuable feedback; we genuinely appreciate it.

Regarding the software installation issue on the first day of the Hackathon - Cyber Security course, I'd like to clarify that FunTech provide all the necessary laptops, which eliminates the need for any software installation.

The first day of the course is designed to ensure that all children start from a common point. While some students may be more advanced, others may require more guidance. After reviewing the notes and videos from the first day, it seems that Sophocles was actively engaged at his computer. Nevertheless, we acknowledge your point about the pace, and, moving forward, we will encourage students to inform tutors when they've completed a task. This will enable us to offer additional extension exercises to meet varying skill levels.

As for break times, our policy includes two morning breaks, two afternoon breaks, and lunchtime during which all children are encouraged to go outside and make the most of the school's play areas.

Your input on the mobile phone policy is well-noted. We understand that different families have varying preferences in this regard. To address this, we will be introducing a yellow card and red card policy starting in 2024. During lesson time, students will need permission to use their phones. A yellow card will be issued for the first offense, and should it happen again, a red card will follow, resulting in phone confiscation. We hope this solution accommodates the preferences of all parents and fosters a conducive learning environment.

We genuinely value your insights, and they help us enhance the FunTech experience for all our students. Thank you for your feedback, and we're looking forward to continually improving our courses.

He’d love to do a term time course but it is really expensive. Any way to reduce the cost of these courses?

We are proud to offer a fantastic scholarship program, and I have forwarded your information to our enrollment manager, who will reach out to you shortly.
