Find out more UK National Centre for Computing Education The Raspberry Pi Foundation is part of a consortium that has secured over £78 million in government funding to make sure every child in every school in England has access to a world-leading computing education. Working with our partners, STEM Learning and the British Computer Society, we will establish a new National Centre for Computing Education (NCCE) and deliver a comprehensive programme of support for computing teachers in primary and secondary schools. This will include resources, training, research, certification, and more. Head to the Raspberry Pi blog for more details, and follow the NCCE's Twitter account to stay updated. Community "My motivation for taking the Foundation's online training courses was to improve my subject knowledge and to find out how to use the Raspberry Pi with Python in a classroom situation. I had a basic knowledge of most of the subject areas covered before I started, but I was by no means an expert programmer!" "I've taken four courses in total and have progressed towards improving my skills with Python. I am now at the stage where I am confident enough to apply what I've learned with the students I teach." "A good example of this is from the Teaching Physical Computing with Raspberry Pi and Python course: I've been using Python with my students to control simple input and output devices in the real world such as LEDs, buzzers, buttons, and so on. I've even progressed the students on to programming LED arrays like the Pi Stop." "If I was going to do it all again, I would probably take a more structured approach to my learning — it's quite easy to lose focus on a course when you are working by yourself and haven't got someone physically teaching you face-to-face. Having said that, the peer-to-peer learning system in FutureLearn is good and allows for plenty of interactions between the user and other course-takers and course facilitators."
