” With job losses to AI in the coming decades predicted in the millions, coding is one skill that looks futureproof. “
The Guardian
Websites. Apps. Video games. Nimble startups and huge blue-chips. From the smartphones we use everyday, to the algorithms businesses and organisations use to work more efficiently and deliver better services, the world is built on code. English might be the most important language in the world – but coding is catching up with it rapidly.
Even if you don’t pursue a career in coding, it’s a key skill for getting ahead. Just understanding the structures behind coding and being able to read and write the basics in a language or two can be a career game-changer – not to mention the resilience, creativity and problem-solving skills it empowers.
But with so many languages out there, it can be difficult to know where to start. To help, we’ve outlined the different languages you can learn – so you can choose the one right for your child.
