I would actually argue that "code" should be taught at the same time as algebra formally. But I don't know enough about European education systems to specify more.
- RosieA 12y agoWell you nailed it pretty much on the head. UK is already placing mandates that begin enforcement next year that state secondary schools must supply a rudimentary coding education to all students. Other EU countries are soon to follow, and the US government is essentially running tests across certain districts of similar ideas. Problem at the moment is that we don't have teachers in the world who can code, much less teach it. We actually launched the first pieces of a platform today that approaches this issue. We'll be releasing more news soon about our efforts to collaborate with schools and governments to Teach Teachers to Teach Code! http://bit.ly/teach-the-teachers http://bit.ly/teach-the-teachers
