The year that computing was added to the UK curriculum. We’ve been supporting teachers and students ever since.
Ocado Technology, the UK-based online grocery technology pioneer, is powering the future of online retail through disruptive innovation. Our mission is to transform online grocery retail and enable some of the world's most forward-thinking retailers to do grocery online profitably, scalably and sunstainably.
The Ocado Smart Platform is the world's most advanced end-to-end e-Commerce, fulfilment and logistic platform, based on a blending of six disruptive technologies: Artificial Intelligence; Robotics; Digital Twins, Cloud, Big Data Analytics and IoT. The Ocado Smart Platform spans an award-winning network of native apps, alongside voice ordering, highly automated warehouses and a suite of in-house built smart software.
The Ocado Technology Code for Life resources are designed for and tested by, primary school teachers.
Our aim is to teach children the basic principles of coding, to help them flourish in an increasingly digital world. And in the coming years, we’ll extend our resources to support pupils throughout their school career and beyond.
Code for Life would not have been possible without the time and skills volunteered by our talented developers and creatives at Ocado Technology. Thank you to everyone who has helped us get to where we are now.
We are open source, so anyone can ask to contribute. You can play with game-running JavaScript, Python/Django, animation using SVG and Raphael, and a lot more. We’d like input from all sorts of backgrounds, whether you’re: a programmer looking for a creative outlet; a teacher hoping to shape the resources; a polyglot who’d like to help with translation; or even a pupil putting your skills to the test.
To contribute, head over to GitHub, check out the issue tracker, and get started. There you can suggest new features or assign yourself an issue to develop (you’ll find more info about how to do this on GitHub).

Sharon was instrumental in helping to create Code for Life. At the beginning of 2014 she was recruited to act as our Educational Consultant. The project drew on her previous skills as a pioneering computing teacher and education consultant.
Sharon has left a lasting legacy by creating something which will help teach STEM skills to the next generation of computer scientists across the world.
