PROGRAM

Description

In this Year 9 programming course, students will learn the foundations of coding using Visual Studio Code, focusing on three core programming languages: JavaScript, Python, and SQL. Students will explore web development, data management, and programming logic through hands-on projects. This course will help students develop essential problem-solving and computational thinking skills as they build interactive websites, write Python scripts, and manage data with SQL. By the end of the course, students will have a solid understanding of modern programming techniques and be well-equipped for further exploration in computer science.
