Scratch Coding Curriculum for Primary Schools
A playful, structured block-coding curriculum for Class 1–5. Children create stories, animations and games while learning sequencing, loops, events and logic, with lesson plans ready for your teachers.
Why primary schools choose our Scratch curriculum
Young children learn coding best through stories, characters and play.
Story-based lessons
Each lesson starts with a story or challenge that children solve with code.
Computational thinking
Sequencing, loops, events, conditions and debugging taught step by step.
Activity books
Colourful books with unplugged activities, worksheets and project pages.
Works with any lab
Scratch is free and runs in the browser or offline on lab computers and tablets.
Teacher-ready
Teacher editions, slide decks and training so any teacher can deliver it.
Showcase days
Students present games and animations at a class showcase each term.
Curriculum by class
One period per week; unplugged activities included for days without computers.
| Class | Tool | Concepts | Term project |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | ScratchJr / unplugged | Sequences, directions, characters | Animated greeting |
| 2 | ScratchJr | Events, repeat loops, sounds | Talking story |
| 3 | Scratch | Motion, costumes, broadcast | Animated story with scenes |
| 4 | Scratch | Variables, conditions, scores | Catch or maze game |
| 5 | Scratch | Lists, cloning, simple physics, debugging | Multi-level game or quiz |
Scratch coding in primary schools, explained
Why Scratch for primary school?
Scratch is a free, block-based language from MIT. Children snap blocks together instead of typing, so they focus on logic and creativity. It is used in schools worldwide to introduce coding and fits NEP 2020’s emphasis on coding and computational thinking from early years.
What the curriculum covers
Class 1–2 begin with ScratchJr and unplugged activities on sequences and directions. Class 3–5 move to Scratch, learning motion, events, loops, variables, conditions and simple game physics. Each term ends with a project that children present to classmates.
Coding programme for schools
The Scratch curriculum is the foundation of our coding programme for schools, which continues with Python, web development and AI in higher classes. Schools can adopt only the primary curriculum or the complete Class 1–12 pathway.
Delivery options
Your teachers can deliver it after our training, or Kod2Kids instructors can teach on campus. Both options include lesson plans, activity books, assessments and certificates.
How it works
A simple, proven process for schools of every size.
Discovery call
Share your grades, student count, infrastructure and goals. We suggest the right model.
Proposal & sample session
You receive a proposal, curriculum outline and pricing, plus a free sample session for students or management.
Setup & launch
Kits, books and material arrive, trainers are deployed and the timetable is agreed with your academic team.
Deliver & report
Weekly sessions, projects, exhibitions and term reports. Renewal and expansion are planned together.
Projects your students will build
Real, working projects, not just theory.
