Why this level, specifically
Class 4 is the perfect first coding year.
Old enough to read and type, young enough to be free of exam pressure. The CBSE and ICSE Class 4 computer books introduce coding gently — we take that starter and turn it into real, finished projects.
01 / Syllabus
CBSE/ICSE Class 4 Computer covers Scratch
Most Class 4 computer textbooks have an early Scratch chapter. Our curriculum covers everything in that chapter and goes three levels deeper — so school tests feel trivial.
02 / Typing
Keyboard fluency is enough
By Class 4, most children can type short sentences. That's enough for 3 to 5 line Python programs. We pair blocks and text without pressure.
03 / Time
No board pressure yet
Class 4 is still in the deep curiosity zone. The year is long, homework is light, and there is room to learn something hard slowly and enjoyably.

Six projects your Class 4 student actually finishes.
The same six projects every Class 4 student of ours ships. Not ideas, not demos — finished, saved, shown-to-family work.
Apple Catcher
Score counter, lives, levels — classic arcade pattern.
Joke Generator
Three-line Python program that picks a random joke. First text-code win.
Teachable Pet
Train an image model, hook it to a Scratch cat that reacts.
Favourite Things Page
A small HTML page about themselves — hosted online, shareable.
Animated Greeting Card
A birthday card with music, confetti and a name. Sent to a cousin.
The curriculum path
Four stages across a school year.
We align to the school calendar — lighter around mid-terms, steady otherwise. This is what most Class 4 students walk through.
Term 1 · Warm-up
Scratch comfort
Sprites, events, motion — short silly projects. The goal is "I enjoy coding class" more than any specific skill.
- sprites
- events
- fun
Term 1 · Games
First finished games
Maze chase, apple catcher. Computational thinking quietly moves in through loops and score.
- loops
- score
- lives
Term 2 · First Python
Three-line programs
Python enters with jokes, tip calculators, dice rollers. Typing is the new skill — blocks stay too.
- input
- random
Term 2 · Web or AI
Pick a direction
Either an HTML personal page or an AI Teachable Machine project. Most Class 4 students do both eventually.
- html
- AI
- deploy
Two formats, same 1 hour live class
Option A
Option B
Pick the class format that fits your child.
Same curriculum. Same teachers. Same recordings. The difference is whether your child learns best with one teacher's full attention, or alongside 4 to 6 classmates at their level.
Live 1-on-1 Online Class
One teacher, one learner, the full 1 hour. The teacher adapts pace in real time — slowing down on tricky concepts, speeding up where your child is already fluent. Best for focused learners, specific exam prep, or fastest progress.
- 1 teacher, 1 student, 1 hour per session
- Pace fully adjusted to your child
- Focused help on school projects and exams
- Flexible timing — you pick the slots
- Every class recorded and shared with parents
₹2,499/ month · 8 sessions
Live Small-Group Online Class
4 to 6 students at a similar level, one teacher, 1 hour per session. Learners move faster when they see peers solve problems in different ways. Supportive, never pressured. Best if your child enjoys learning with others.
- Small groups of 4 to 6 similar-level learners
- 1 hour live session, 2 sessions per week
- Peer project reviews — students present to each other
- Fixed schedule, same classmates each week
- Class recording and parent progress report

Common questions from parents
Before you book the demo — answered honestly.
Short, plain answers. If your question isn't here, tap the callback button at the top and a human will get back to you the same day.
Is Class 4 too early for coding?
Not at all. Class 4 students can read short paragraphs, follow instructions and love making things. That's exactly what Scratch asks for. Real Python, gently, comes mid-year.
Do you cover what the school computer book teaches?
Yes and more. The Class 4 school book is typically an intro to Scratch — we cover that deeply and add real projects school doesn't have time for.
How often per week?
Two 1-hour sessions a week is standard. You can choose weekends if weekdays are tight with school.
1-on-1 or small group for Class 4?
Small group works for most. 1-on-1 is better for very shy or very advanced learners. The free demo helps you decide.
What equipment is needed?
Any laptop or desktop from the last 5 years. Stable internet, headphones, webcam. Tablets do not work well for coding — a real keyboard matters.
Is this fun or like school?
Fun. Most Class 4 students describe it as their favourite class. The projects always end with something they can show off.
Will this help with Class 5 school computer subject?
Strongly. By the end of Class 4 with us, most students are ahead of Class 6 school computer syllabus.
Is there a free demo?
Yes. One full 1 hour live class with a real teacher. No card. Refund on unused portion within 2 weeks if needed.
