Rachel
Lead Teacher for Computing
Used Rainforest Coding occasionally for 0–3 months
Sep 2022
I enjoyed Crystal Rainforest when we had that and this is based on it. There are graded activities for each year group, with feedback for teachers. It is very reasonably priced too!!! Thank you.
Rachel found Rainforest Coding:
- Reduces teacher workload“Once the children's names are in, it's easy to login.”
- Improves teaching efficiency“The assessment side of things will probably be very useful - I've only trialled it with Y2 so far.”
- Improves school processes“Helps address the Coding part of the curriculum.”
- Builds student knowledge“WE use Scratch in Ys3 - 6, so it is a good grounding. The children enjoyed the monster characters and progressing through the games.”

It is a great program. I would like to see the younger version extended so I can use it longer with my younger students.
