Postcodes.io records Norwood Green and Dormer's Wells as suburban areas of Ealing, with Southall itself listed as a settlement. Ealing schools follow England's national curriculum; our lessons work by school year and cover GCSE and A level, and we stop for the holidays once you tell us the dates. ### Ealing, London and our approach More nearby options: [coding classes in Ealing](/coding-classes-in-ealing-london) and [London](/best-coding-class-in-london). Why we teach thinking before tools is on [learn to think, not just use AI tools](/learn-to-think-not-just-use-ai-tools-uk). The Southall project ## Beam search: how many plans should an agent keep in mind? One street map, 150 journeys, five beam widths, and a comparison with a search that remembers everything. Street and path data for a rectangle over Southall come from OpenStreetMap, simplified to 3,058 junctions and 218.7 km, of which 832 junctions are dead ends. Python picks 150 random journeys at least 800 m apart; the typical shortest walk is 2,840 m. The agent grows partial routes one junction at a time, scores each by distance walked plus straight-line distance still to go, keeps only the k highest-scoring after every step, and never walks back through a junction it has already used on that route. | Beam width k | Journeys completed | Typical route against the shortest | Partial routes examined (median) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 1 (greedy) | 3 of 150 | 1.5% longer | 9 | | 2 | 30 of 150 | 5.9% longer | 49.5 | | 5 | 75 of 150 | 5.0% longer | 211 | | 20 | 129 of 150 | 3.5% longer | 1,180.5 | | 100 | 149 of 150 | 2.1% longer | 4,836 | A beam of one almost always fails: it follows the most promising street straight into a cul-de-sac with nothing left to fall back on. Widening the beam rescues more journeys, and at 100 it completes 149 of the 150, with routes typically 2.1% longer than the true shortest. It never guarantees the shortest; even at width 100 it found the exact optimum on only 14 journeys, because good routes that looked unpromising early were thrown away. For comparison, A* search, which remembers every junction it has seen, found the shortest route on every journey after examining a median of 438 junctions. On a town map memory is cheap, so A* wins. Beam search earns its place where remembering everything is impossible, such as choosing the next word from tens of thousands, step after step. ### Ages 8 to 11 Walk a paper maze keeping only your two favourite paths, and see when that goes wrong. ### Ages 11 to 15 Code a greedy route-finder on a few Southall streets in Python and watch it hit a dead end. ### Ages 15 and up Build beam search, vary the width on 150 journeys and compare it with A*. ### OpenStreetMap data, our agent Streets and paths are from OpenStreetMap and its contributors under the Open Database Licence, fetched with the Overpass API. The journeys, the agent and all results are our own calculations. How agents plan ## What this teaches about vibe coding and AI agents Pruning early is cheap until the good option is the one pruned. | In the route project | When an AI agent plans or writes | | --- | --- | | A beam of one failed 147 of 150 times | Committing to the first hunch is fragile | | Wider beams completed more journeys | Keeping options open costs memory but helps | | Even width 100 rarely found the shortest | Pruned search is good, not guaranteed | | A* won when memory was cheap | Pick the method that fits the problem size | | Language models face vast choices | That is why they use beams and sampling | Agents that plan multi-step tasks, and models that write text, keep a small set of candidates at each step because they cannot consider everything. When an agent commits too early it can walk confidently into a dead end, just like the greedy router here. In vibe coding the learner describes the program and an AI writes it; our Southall learners ask the AI for more than one approach before choosing, and test each. Building agents comes after a learner can code Python without support, typically sixteen upwards, and anything in Copilot Studio is taught privately. Read [understand the code, don't copy-paste](/understand-the-code-dont-copy-paste-uk) for the principle and [agents for UK learners](/ai-agents-course-for-students-uk) for the route. OpenStreetMap, the ONS, Nomis and postcodes.io provided open data only and have no link to Modern Age Coders; the agent and any faults in it are ours.

[Generative AI Course](/courses/complete-generative-ai-masterclass-college)[Python Masterclass](/courses/python-programming-masterclass-zero-to-advanced-college)Agents and search ## What is beam search in AI, and why do language models use it? Beam search keeps only the k most promising partial answers at each step and drops the rest; language models use it because the number of possible sentences is far too large to explore, and it trades a small loss in quality for a huge saving in memory. Finding walking routes across Southall, a beam of one completed just 3 of 150 journeys, while a beam of 100 completed 149 with routes typically 2.1% longer than the shortest. Learners who have tuned a beam ask of any AI agent: how many options did it keep, and what did it throw away too early? A Southall teenager who has watched a greedy agent walk into a cul-de-sac builds agents that keep their options open, and coding is how that lesson sticks. The longer argument is in [why teenagers should still learn to code in 2026](/blog/is-coding-worth-learning-2026). How it works ## Lessons reaching Southall by video Bring a computer, a webcam and a connection able to hold a video call. ### Hands on keys Students type and run it all while our tutor, following over screen share, keeps asking what the agent should try next. ### Plan from day one What the trial reveals becomes lesson two's starting point, with any GCSE board written down. ### First lesson free Lesson one is on us and ends with a course suggestion. ### Grouped by ability Classes hold between five and ten learners from around the UK, sorted by level. ### Two a week No lessons in school holidays. ### Fixed slot Tutors follow UK clock changes, so your time holds. Why online Five learners at one level, all free the same evening, are rarely neighbours. On video they do not need to be. Fees ## Southall fees The international rate card, which applies outside India, is what Southall learners pay. First class**USD 0** A free first lesson, then our advice. Group tuition**USD 100** Around eight live group lessons each month. Private tuition**USD 150** Around eight live private lessons each month.

FAQ ## Southall questions Beam search, the route project, vibe coding, Python and practical details. ### How many people live in Southall? There is no single official figure. Census 2021 counted 15,694 in Southall Green ward, 10,825 in Southall Broadway and 6,581 in Southall West, each measured on its own. ### Are vibe coding and AI agents classes available online in Southall? They are: every class is a live video call, open to ages 6 to 67 from Norwood Green to Dormers Wells and across Ealing. ### What is beam width? The number of partial answers beam search keeps at each step. Wider beams find more and better answers but use more memory and time. ### Is beam search better than A*? Not when memory is cheap: A* finds the shortest route with certainty. Beam search is useful when the choices are too many to remember, as in text generation. ### What does the Southall project involve? Running beam search with widths from 1 to 100 on 150 walking journeys across Southall's mapped streets and comparing it with A*. ### How does vibe coding fit in? Throughout, for all ages: learners describe the program, the AI drafts it, and the learner tests and repairs it. ### When do learners build AI agents? When Python is something they can do alone, most often from sixteen; Copilot Studio is one-to-one only. ### Can you help with GCSE and A level? Yes, in computer science and maths, aiming at understanding; no grade is ever promised. ### How much are lessons? Lesson one has no fee. Monthly after that: USD 100 in a class, USD 150 with a personal tutor. ### Are there lessons in the holidays? No, they pause for school holidays; send the dates.
