Future learn do a number of free* online courses

start a code club
start a coder dojo
teaching programming in primary schools
scratch to python

all the above have been created by the Pi foundation.

* These are free and you get access for something like 5 weeks, however
if you pay Â32 you get unlimited access as well as a certificate sent to
you, which is ideal if you need something for a portfolio, if applying
for jobs etc, otherwise you can just link to your profile on their website.

Courses are great and very interactive.

Seems like the movement has really started, thank you for the activity
link I have sent that to myself,ÂÂÂ I need to try and make page on the
dcglug site with as much info on all this as possible.

I have page up now on asking for volunteers but before long this will
need to be a sub-page for a general where the dojos are being held.
