AI Foundations Classes for Kids in Kenya

Who this course is for

Ages 6–8 learn with a parent through drawings and spoken explanations. Ages 9–11 create guided projects. Ages 12–14 add testing and comparisons. Ages 15–17 extend the projects and explain trade-offs. The entry assessment helps identify a useful starting point; it does not replace teacher guidance.

What your child will make

Design an imaginary garden-idea helper on paper. Write its purpose, one safe prompt, one fact to verify and one limitation. Share the plan with a parent and improve it together.

How learning works

The four foundation courses include short teacher videos with practical activities. The eight project paths use guided workshops and built-in workspaces. Children save private projects and submit them to assigned teachers. Weekly one-hour sessions use teacher-provided Google Meet links. A course certificate requires all lessons completed and a teacher-approved final project scoring at least 70; it is a school certificate, not an accredited qualification.

Membership: KSh 3,000 monthly, KSh 8,500 quarterly or KSh 32,000 annually per child. Payment is reviewed by the school before course access starts.
