Here at SG Code Campus, we make sure that every student uses their newly acquired skills to be technology creatives. See what some of our secondary school students can do with as little as 10 hours of Python programming classes!

These are only a short selection of what Code Campers can build after completing our Principles courses in Python. To see what more advanced graduates have accomplished after completing our entire roadmap, check out our student achievements here.
