Frequently Asked Questions
What is Code SHEROs?+
Code SHEROs is a story-driven coding platform for girls aged 7–12. Players join forces with three heroines — Byte, Pixel, and Nova — to solve missions using real HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
Is Code SHEROs free?+
We are currently running a pilot programme in Lusaka, Zambia. During the pilot, access is completely free for participating schools and families.
What age group is this for?+
Code SHEROs is designed for girls aged 7–12, but anyone who wants to learn to code is welcome! The story-driven approach works well for beginners of all ages.
Do I need to install anything?+
No! Code SHEROs runs entirely in your web browser. No downloads, no installations — just open the site and start coding.
How does my child log in?+
A parent or guardian creates an account first, then sets up a child profile with a Hero Name and a 4-digit Secret Code. Your child uses their Hero Name and Secret Code to log in.
Can I track my child’s progress?+
Yes! The Parent Portal shows missions completed, badges earned, time spent coding, and skill mastery for each child linked to your account.
What coding languages will my child learn?+
Code SHEROs teaches HTML, CSS, and introductory JavaScript through interactive missions. We also cover logic, problem-solving, and computational thinking.
Is my child’s data safe?+
Absolutely. We are COPPA-compliant, collect minimal data, and never share personal information with third parties. See our Safety First page for full details.
