Inclusivity and Representation

Representation is everything, which is why inclusivity is ‘baked in’ to our coding adventures!


Cultural norms amongst under-represented groups may result in children from these groups (and especially girls) not being encouraged to explore technology as a career. And without that encouragement, sadly many of these children won't even consider STEM subjects for higher or further education.

We want ALL children to understand that science and technology can be for them too!

Three school children are sitting on the floor with an adult volunteer - they are completing a coding activity task using symbols and a pen and mini white board. At the top of the page is the Get with the Program logo and at the bottom of the page is the URL: www.getwiththeprogram.org.uk

With a female professor and robot, and by introducing diverse role models, we normalise the visibility of under-represented groups to children of all ethnicities and genders inspiring them to become the tech innovators of the future.
