We aim to inspire them to become tomorrow’s global inventors, leaders and shapers through our programmes: CODE100Club, Schools’ Programme and Beyond Coding.
In order to achieve our mission of Every Child, a Computational Thinker,we work in partnership with schools, museums, libraries and other establishments, organising free workshops and events that raise the awareness and profile of computational thinking with a focus on its application across the curriculum and the outside world.
Our team is made up of experienced and passionate educators with backgrounds in the Sciences and Technology. Considering the experience of our team, they are well-placed to ensure that children grasp new skills as they have great understanding of how children learn best. Our facilitators are carefully selected based on their technology-related skills, their passion for the development of children as Computational Thinkers, which is well-translated into their admirable drive to inspire our future tech enthusiasts.
As the technology industry is fast-paced, we are forever developing our team in order to ensure that they are abreast of new technologies as they arise.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” wrap_container=”yes” text_align=”center” is_section=”yes” section_skin=”parallax” remove_margin_bottom=”yes” remove_border=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1509356551597{background-image: url(http://www.computationalthinkers.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/custom-overlay-1.png?id=28) !important;background-position: 0 0 !important;background-repeat: repeat !important;}”][vc_column 0=””][ultimate_spacer height=”30″][vc_row_inner 0=””][vc_column_inner width=”5/12″][vc_single_image image=”220″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” onclick=”link_image” css_animation=”fadeInLeft”][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”7/12″][vc_custom_heading text=”Foluso Odutuyo B.Sc.

Foluso is a qualified primary school teacher. She is a visionary educator and holds a B.Sc. in Microbiology, a M.SC. in Bioinformatics and PGCE (primary).
In her teaching career, she has liaised with organisations such as Google, Shepheard Epstein Hunters and others in order to enrich the educational provision for the children in her school and surrounding schools. She is a strong believer in exploratory, child-centred learning approaches as she is of the view that this allows children to become critical thinkers who effortlessly apply higher-order thinking to solving problems and most importantly are able to draw links between varying concepts.
Her most favourite held post is that of Computing Lead, as she thinks it kept her on her feet. For those who know Foluso well, they will know that she relishes challenges and is constantly seeking ways to develop herself and others around her. So, when she caught the Computational Thinking ‘bug’, everyone knew there was no stopping her!
Foluso is very committed to ensuring every child is nurtured and provided with the opportunity to develop as a Computational Thinker because she, along with an increasing number of experts worldwide believe it is crucial to the future as it will be the defining feature of our rapidly advancing technological world.
Whenever she is not instilling Computational Thinking skills in children across the globe, she is doing such with her three, lovely princesses who genuinely believe they are THE Ultimate CODEStroNAUTs!
