Postcodes.io lists Hayes itself in the UB3 district, with Harlington and Hayes End as suburban areas of Hillingdon. Hillingdon schools work to the national curriculum for England, and once we have your term dates no lesson is booked into a holiday. ### Hillingdon, London and our approach More choices are on [coding classes in Hillingdon](/coding-classes-in-hillingdon-london) and the [London page](/best-coding-class-in-london). Why we put reasoning before tools is explained on [learn to think, not just use AI tools](/learn-to-think-not-just-use-ai-tools-uk). The Hayes project ## Mean, median or trimmed mean? Robust statistics on Hayes Census areas 201 real densities, one freak value, then a flood of deliberate typing mistakes. The learner downloads Census 2021 population density from the Nomis API for every output area in Hillingdon and uses ONS lookups to keep the 201 areas that belong to the five wards in the table above. Density runs from 386.4 people per square kilometre to 96,585.4; the next highest is 53,928.6. Python then computes four averages: the mean, the median, a 10% trimmed mean (drop the lowest and highest tenth, average the rest) and a 10% winsorised mean (replace those tenths with the nearest remaining value). | Measure | Value | | --- | --- | | Mean | 9,520.5 | | Median | 9,177.6 | | 10% trimmed mean | 8,711.8 | | 10% winsorised mean | 8,659.4 | | Standard deviation | 8,319.4 | | Median absolute deviation, scaled | 3,503.2 | On the real data the averages roughly agree, but the two measures of spread do not: the standard deviation is more than twice the robust one, because it squares the distance of a handful of extreme areas. Next the learner simulates a common accident. A chosen number of middling values are multiplied by 100, as if a decimal point had been lost. | Values corrupted | Mean | Median | 10% trimmed mean | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | None | 9,520.5 | 9,177.6 | 8,711.8 | | 1 of 201 | 14,040.8 | 9,262.1 | 8,738.3 | | 5 | 32,412.3 | 9,409.4 | 8,842.1 | | 20 (about 10%) | 103,643.4 | 9,851.5 | 10,483.6 | | 50 (about 25%) | 258,462.3 | 11,120.4 | 189,757.3 | One bad value in 201 moves the mean by nearly half while the median moves by under 1%. The trimmed mean holds until the share of bad values passes what it trims, then collapses: at 25% corrupted it is almost as wrong as the mean, and only the median, whose breakdown point is 50%, still looks like Hayes. Outlier hunting shows the same effect. The classic rule, more than three standard deviations from the mean, flags 2 areas in the real data; the robust version built on the median and the median absolute deviation flags 7, because the extremes inflate the very standard deviation that is supposed to catch them. ### Ages 8 to 11 Find the average height of a class, then add one giant and see which kind of average hardly notices. ### Ages 11 to 15 Load the Hayes densities in Python and compare the mean and the median before and after one typo. ### Ages 15 and up Code trimmed and winsorised means, measure their breakdown points and build a robust outlier rule. ### Census figures, our experiment Densities are Office for National Statistics Census 2021 data from Nomis, under the Open Government Licence. The choice of wards, the simulated mistakes and every average are our own calculations; the published data contains no such errors. Averages and AI ## What this teaches about vibe coding and AI agents Some averages shatter at the first bad value; others shrug it off. | In the density project | When AI summarises data for you | | --- | --- | | One typo moved the mean by nearly half | Ask which average was used, and why | | The median moved by under 1% | Robust summaries survive dirty data | | Trimming failed past its limit | Every method has a breaking point | | The standard deviation hid outliers | A check can be fooled by what it checks | | The mistakes were ours, the data clean | Test tools on errors you planted yourself | Ask an AI assistant for "the average" of a column and it will almost always return the mean, without looking for a lost decimal point. In a Hayes vibe coding lesson the learner words the request, the AI produces the Python, and then comes the sabotage: a wrong value is slipped into a copy of the data to find out whether the answer flinches. AI agents that clean and summarise spreadsheets on their own need the same test before they are trusted. Our agent-building work is held back until Python is secure, so it suits sixteen-plus and adult learners, and anything in Copilot Studio is reserved for private lessons. Two further reads: [understand the code, don't copy-paste](/understand-the-code-dont-copy-paste-uk) for the habit, and [the agents course for UK students](/ai-agents-course-for-students-uk) for what follows it. Modern Age Coders is independent of the Office for National Statistics, Nomis and postcodes.io. We used their open data only; the experiment and any faults in it are ours. Stages ## From class averages to robust statistics The school year is a first guess at level; the free lesson settles it. Years 2 to 7 ### How to think Averages, odd ones out and checking whether an answer is sensible. [Problem Solving and Computational Thinking for Kids](/courses/problem-solving-and-computational-thinking-for-kids)[Scratch Coding for Kids](/courses/scratch-programming-complete-course)Years 4 to 8 ### Vibe coding for kids Small games and apps made with AI help and tested by the learner. [Vibe Coding for Kids](/courses/vibe-coding-for-kids-beginners-ai-scratch-game-dev)[Python and AI for Kids](/courses/python-ai-kids-masterclass)Years 9 to 13 ### Python and statistics Real data, robust averages and outlier rules alongside GCSE and A level. [Python for Teens](/courses/python-complete-masterclass-teens)[Statistics & Probability](/courses/statistics-probability-maths-course)Adults ### Data work and agents Cleaning, summarising and automating data work in Python. [Python Masterclass](/courses/python-programming-masterclass-zero-to-advanced-college)[Generative AI Course](/courses/complete-generative-ai-masterclass-college)Python and statistics ## What is a trimmed mean, and when should you use the median instead of the mean? A trimmed mean drops a fixed share of the lowest and highest values before averaging; use it, or the median, whenever the data may contain extreme values or mistakes, because the ordinary mean can be moved by a single one. Across 201 Hayes Census areas, one simulated typo shifted the mean density from 9,520.5 to 14,040.8 people per square km, while the median moved from 9,177.6 to 9,262.1 and the 10% trimmed mean from 8,711.8 to 8,738.3. A learner who has broken a mean on purpose reads every AI summary differently: is that the mean or the median, and how far would a single typo push it? That instinct for a fragile number is what lets a Hayes teenager audit an AI report, and it is built by writing the Python yourself. The longer argument is in [why teenagers should still learn to code in 2026](/blog/is-coding-worth-learning-2026). How it works ## Hayes Town to Yeading, taught online A computer and an internet connection good enough for video are all that is needed. ### Keyboard stays with the learner Our tutor watches a shared screen and mostly asks one thing: does that number look believable to you? ### Trial first, plan second The free session shows what the learner already knows, and we note any exam board. ### No fee to try Lesson one is free and finishes with our course suggestion. ### Classmates at your level A Hayes learner joins five to ten others from around Britain who are at the same point. ### Two lessons a week None in the school holidays. ### Fixed slot Tutors shift with the UK clock changes, so your time does not. Why online Five learners at one level, free on the same evening and living close by, are hard to find. Online, they can be anywhere. Fees ## Hayes fees Hayes learners pay our international rate, the one that applies everywhere outside India. First class**USD 0** A full lesson free, then a recommendation. Group tuition**USD 100** About eight live group lessons a month. Private tuition**USD 150** About eight live one-to-one lessons a month. Hayes fees are quoted and billed in US dollars; there is no sterling price. Billing waits for the trial to settle which course and which evening, and the pricing page answers questions on holidays, absences and changing format.

FAQ ## Hayes questions Medians, trimmed means, the 201 Census areas, vibe coding and how a Hayes lesson is arranged. ### How many people live in Hayes Town ward? The 2021 census counted 14,998 usual residents in Hayes Town ward in Hillingdon; the other wards are published separately. ### Are online Python classes available in Hayes? They are. A learner in Yeading, Harlington or anywhere else in Hillingdon joins by live video, and we take ages 6 to 67. ### What is the median absolute deviation? A robust measure of spread: take each value's distance from the median, then take the median of those distances. Unlike the standard deviation, a few extreme values barely change it. ### What is a breakdown point? The share of bad values a statistic can take before it becomes meaningless. For the mean it is effectively zero, for a 10% trimmed mean about 10%, and for the median 50%. ### What does the Hayes project involve? Comparing the mean, median, trimmed mean and winsorised mean of population density in 201 Hayes Census areas, then corrupting the data on purpose to see which survive. ### Is vibe coding on the timetable? For every age group. The learner says what should be built, an AI drafts it, and the learner proves it works. ### What about building AI agents? Python has to come first and be solid, so agents are mostly for sixteen and over; Copilot Studio agents are private-lesson work. ### Can exam-year pupils get help? Both GCSE and A level computer science and maths are supported. Our aim is that the learner understands the work; a grade is never promised. ### What will it cost a Hayes family? Hayes learners try one lesson free. Staying on costs USD 100 each month in a class, or USD 150 each month for private teaching. ### What happens at half term and in the summer? Lessons stop for school holidays once you tell us the dates.
