Secondary school students can also enrol in dedicated G3 Computing and O-Level Computing tuition classes.

Question 4

Where is Computhink Academy located in Singapore?

Accepted Answer

Computhink Academy is located at Toa Payoh Central, Singapore — specifically at Computhink @ Toa Payoh Library, 6 Toa Payoh Central, Singapore 319191. The location is accessible by MRT and serves students from across Singapore.

Question 5

Should children learn to code even with AI tools available?

Accepted Answer

Yes. At Computhink Academy, we believe foundational coding skills are more important than ever in the age of AI, not less. Children who understand programming logic, computational thinking, and how code works are better equipped to use AI tools effectively, identify errors in AI-generated code, and build systems rather than just consume them. Skipping coding foundations in favour of AI-generated output leaves students without the judgment skills that the industry increasingly demands.

Question 6

What is the Elite Coder Certification offered by Computhink?

Accepted Answer

The Elite Coder Certification is Singapore's first formalised coding assessment for young coders, issued by Computhink Academy in partnership with the Singapore Science Centre and Flying Cape. It assesses coding mastery at three levels — basic, intermediate, and advanced — based on internationally recognised CSTA K-12 Computer Science Standards. Students receive a scorecard and e-certificate endorsed by the Singapore Science Centre, which is useful for Direct School Admission (DSA) applications.

Question 7

How is Computhink Academy different from other coding classes in Singapore?

Accepted Answer

Computhink Academy is one of Singapore's few coding schools offering a structured, progressive 10-year curriculum from ages 7 to 16. All instructors are computer programmers by trade or training. The academy has over 100 five-star Google reviews, maintains small class sizes for individualised attention, and is the only provider of the Elite Coder Certification endorsed by the Singapore Science Centre. It also offers specialist G3 Computing and O-Level Computing tuition with a proven track record of exam results improvement.
