PYTHON BUILDER

Real Python. Real physics. The foundation before specialising.

THE OUTCOME

Your child will leave fluent in Python — with games, physics and maths simulations, a live website and a first 3D scene on their own URL — ready to choose a specialist track with confidence.

WEEK-BY-WEEK CURRICULUM
PHASE 1

PYTHON FOUNDATIONS

Weeks 1–4
  1. WK 1
    Turtle Art + First Programs
    Draw shapes, spirals, patterns. Variables, loops, functions — the real vocabulary of code.
    Python Turtle
  2. WK 2–3
    Adventure Text Game
    Rooms, choices, inventory, combat. Story + logic + data structures.
    Python
  3. WK 4
    Algebra Visualizer
    Plot equations. See y = mx + b as a LINE. Change the slope with sliders. Algebra becomes visual.
    Python + matplotlib
PHASE 2

GAMES + PHYSICS

Weeks 5–8
  1. WK 5
    Bouncing Ball Physics
    Pygame. Gravity, collision, friction. Sliders control everything.
    Pygame
  2. WK 6
    Gravity & Motion Simulator
    Code F = ma. Drop objects on Earth, Moon, Mars. Verify Newton’s laws with sliders.
    Pygame + physics
  3. WK 7
    Pendulum Lab
    Simple + double pendulum. Chaotic motion visualised — the moment physics gets beautiful.
    Pygame + physics
  4. WK 8
    HACKATHON 1
    Build anything in one session. Solo. Present at the end.
    Any
PHASE 3

WEB + 3D

Weeks 9–12
  1. WK 9–10
    First Website
    Multi-page site. About, gallery, contact. CSS styling. LIVE on the internet.
    HTML + CSS
  2. WK 11–12
    3D Solar System
    Three.js. Planets orbit with real ratios. Camera controls. Their first 3D scene, on their URL.
    Three.js
PHASE 4

AI + TEAM + DEMO DAY

Weeks 13–16
  1. WK 13
    AI Story Generator
    OpenAI API. Generate stories by mood and topic — and understand what the model is doing.
    OpenAI API
  2. WK 14–15
    Team Build (pairs)
    Plan → build → review. A full project from scratch, together, on Git.
    All
  3. WK 16
    DEMO DAY
    Present the three best projects to parents and judges. Certificates. Track recommendation for Level 3.
    All
