Brooklands, Ashton upon Mersey and Timperley are recorded as suburban areas in Trafford. Local schools teach England's national curriculum, and lessons simply pause for whatever holiday dates you send. ### Greater Manchester, the North West and our approach Other options are on [coding classes in Greater Manchester](/coding-classes-in-greater-manchester) and [North West England](/coding-and-ai-classes-in-north-west-england). Why thinking comes before prompting is explained on [learn to think, not just use AI tools](/learn-to-think-not-just-use-ai-tools-uk). The Sale project ## "Also likes": association rules on Sale's shops Group the town into baskets, measure support, confidence and lift, and then check the patterns against chance. The learner downloads central Sale from the OpenStreetMap API in six tiles and keeps shops and a short list of everyday places such as cafés, restaurants, schools and the post office, leaving out categories this project does not need to discuss: 308 places in all. The first plan was to treat each street as a shopping basket, but only 14 streets had two or more kinds of place tagged, too few to learn from. So the town is cut into squares 200 m across instead, and each square's set of shop types becomes a basket: 68 squares have places, 30 of them two or more kinds. Three numbers describe a rule such as "if a square has a clothes shop, it has a restaurant". Support is how many baskets contain both. Confidence is the share of clothes-shop squares that also have a restaurant. Lift compares that confidence with how common restaurants are anyway: a lift of 1 means no connection, above 1 means they turn up together more often than chance would suggest. The learner keeps pairs found in at least six squares, which gives 26 rules. | Rule | Squares with both | Confidence | Lift | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Clothes shop, so restaurant | 7 | 1.00 | 1.76 | | Hairdresser, so restaurant | 13 | 0.87 | 1.53 | | Fast food, so convenience shop | 7 | 0.58 | 1.75 | | Clothes shop, so hairdresser | 6 | 0.86 | 1.71 | | Café, so convenience shop | 7 | 0.54 | 1.62 | Confidence alone misleads. "Hairdresser, so restaurant" looks very strong at 0.87, but restaurants are the commonest kind of place, found in 17 of the 30 baskets, so a high confidence is almost guaranteed. Lift corrects for that popularity, and it ranks the rules differently: clothes shops and restaurants, fast food and convenience shops, clothes shops and hairdressers. Then the honest check. The learner shuffles which kinds of place sit in which square 300 times, keeping every square's size and every type's count, and counts how many rules reach a lift of 1.5 or more by pure chance. The real town has 12 such rules. The shuffled towns have a median of 2 and a 95th percentile of 8, so Sale's patterns are stronger than chance usually produces. But one shuffle out of 300 also reached 12. With only 30 baskets, the evidence is real but modest, and no single rule should be treated as a law of shopping. ### Ages 8 to 11 Record what is in five lunchboxes, find items that go together, then shuffle and see if it still happens. ### Ages 11 to 15 Count pairs of shop types per square in Python and work out support and confidence. ### Ages 15 and up Compute lift for every rule, run the shuffle test and decide which rules deserve trust. ### OpenStreetMap places, our rules Shops and places are from OpenStreetMap and its contributors under the Open Database Licence. The baskets, rules and shuffle tests are our own work; no individual business is named or judged. Patterns and AI ## What this teaches about vibe coding and AI agents Recommendation engines find patterns; good engineers check they are not luck. | In the Sale project | In recommendations and AI tools | | --- | --- | | Streets were too sparse, so squares were used | How data is grouped shapes what is found | | Confidence flattered popular types | Popular items look related to everything | | Lift corrected for popularity | Compare with what you would expect anyway | | A shuffle test measured chance | Check whether a pattern would appear at random | | 30 baskets gave modest evidence | Small data calls for cautious claims | Ask an AI for a suggestions feature and it will happily write association-rule code that sorts by confidence and stops there. In our vibe coding lessons, where the learner describes an app and the AI drafts it, Sale learners add lift and a shuffle test before they believe a single suggestion. AI agents that recommend products, articles or next steps are only as good as the checks behind their patterns. Building agents follows once Python is steady, usually for older teenagers and adults, and Copilot Studio agents are covered in private lessons only. Explore [the agents route for UK students](/ai-agents-course-for-students-uk) and the reasoning in [understand the code, don't copy-paste](/understand-the-code-dont-copy-paste-uk). Modern Age Coders is independent of OpenStreetMap, the ONS and postcodes.io, and of every business in the data. We used open records only; the analysis, including any mistakes, is ours. Stages ## From lunchbox patterns to data mining A learner's school year points us in a direction, and the trial lesson sets the actual level. Years 2 to 7 ### How to think Patterns, grouping and asking whether something is just luck.

[Generative AI Course](/courses/complete-generative-ai-masterclass-college)[Python Masterclass](/courses/python-programming-masterclass-zero-to-advanced-college)AI and suggestions ## How do "you might also like" recommendations work? Many start from patterns of things that appear together, measured with support, confidence and lift. In Sale, clothes shops and restaurants shared a square more often than chance would suggest, with a lift of 1.76. But a shuffle test showed that with only 30 baskets, chance alone can occasionally produce patterns almost as strong. Learners who have run that test treat every suggestion engine, including AI ones, as a pattern that needs evidence, not a fact. Knowing how suggestions are made, and how to test them, gives Sale teenagers an edge with every AI tool; that alone makes 2026 a good year to start coding. The longer argument is in [why teenagers should still learn to code in 2026](/blog/is-coding-worth-learning-2026). How it works ## Brooklands to Ashton upon Mersey, online No special kit: a computer and broadband that handles a video call. ### Learner-driven sessions All typing, prompting and running is done by the learner, with the tutor watching through screen share and questioning each step. ### Levelled by the trial The free session reveals where to start, regardless of year group, and we note any exam board. ### Opening lesson free Nothing to pay for session one, which finishes with our suggestion. ### Stage-matched classes Groups hold five to ten learners from around Britain at one level. ### Twice weekly No lessons over school holidays. ### Time kept steady Our tutors move with the UK clocks, so your slot does not shift. Why teaching happens online Five learners at the same stage, all free on the same evening, rarely share a postcode. Online, they share a class.

FAQ ## Sale questions Association rules, the shop-pattern project, vibe coding, agents and fees. ### What is the population of Sale? At the 2021 census the Sale built-up area had 62,550 residents, according to the ONS. ### Are AI and programming lessons available for Sale learners? Yes, over live video, for anyone aged 6 to 67 in Sale or elsewhere in Trafford. ### What is an association rule? A pattern of the form "if A appears, B tends to appear too", measured by support, confidence and lift; it is a classic way to build simple recommendations. ### What is the Sale project? Learners mine 308 real places around Sale town centre for kinds of shop that appear together, rank the patterns by lift and use a shuffle test to see which could be chance. ### Can learners in Sale try vibe coding? Yes, at any age: they plan the app, an AI drafts it, and they test every part. ### Do you teach AI agents? Yes, once Python is comfortable, usually from the late teens; Copilot Studio agent lessons are private only. ### Is there a classroom in Sale? No; everything is taught online. ### Is there support for GCSE and A level? Computer science and maths are both covered, aimed at understanding rather than a promised grade. ### How much are lessons? The first is free, then USD 100 monthly in a class or USD 150 monthly one-to-one. ### What happens in school holidays? Lessons pause; just tell us the dates.
