My Code Kit is named a Tools competition winner for Innovative Coding Learning Solution

September 7, 2023 - My Code Kit proudly emerged as one of the 32 winners of the 2022-2023 Tools Competition, recognised for its innovative product aimed at simplifying coding for secondary school students. Our project has won $50,000 in support of its development, joining teams from 12 countries that have obtained over $4 million to develop tools to impact 35 million learners by 2026.

In an era where coding skills are essential, many students fear getting started. My Code Kit's award-winning solution addresses this by offering a personalised and enjoyable coding experience, eliminating the fear of making mistakes.

My Code Kit also aims to address broader issues, such as improving coding skills and fostering greater inclusion in STEM studies, making coding more accessible to everyone.

Mia Pledger, COO of My Code Kit, said, "We aim to inspire young individuals to become creators of new technologies by fostering a love for learning and natural curiosity. This award emphasises our unwavering commitment to this cause."

We are excited to partner with the Tools Competition, which allows us to work with education researchers worldwide, ensuring that our product has a positive impact globally. Our mission is to empower students in more than 50 countries, encouraging them to explore and build resilience as they learn to code.

This marks the third cycle of the Tools Competition, which has already awarded nearly $10 million to 80 ed tech innovators. The next cycle of the Tools Competition is set to launch on September 21, 2023, at https://tools-competition.org/launch-event/.

Our flagship product, 'Ocobox,' is specifically designed for GCSE, N5, and K-12 students in secondary schools.
