A coding school like no other

Get started for free

You can start learning to code with us for free on our Introduction to Programming course. Once you've signed up, you'll have access to our online community of staff, students and alumni.

Online and flexible

All of our courses are online and part-time on evenings and weekends. With multiple start dates available, you'll be sure to find something that works around your existing commitments.

Spread the cost

Looking for a coding bootcamp but can't afford the fees? We aim to ensure our courses are always competitively priced, but to make it easier we also offer the option to pay over 12 months interest free.

Gain a comprehensive understanding of how to build software in our 24-week immersive part-time bootcamp, and gain the skills you need to become a Junior Software Engineer.

Our Software Engineer FastTrack course covers all aspects of software development. You'll learn about the tools you’ll need to get started, before moving on to gain an in-depth understanding of one of the most popular programming languages: JavaScript.

You'll then build backend services (or APIs) that can store, manipulate and provide data, which you'll later use when building frontend applications which are able to consume this data and present it in a user-friendly manner.

Manchester Codes was a life changing experience for me. You are joining a community of helpful likeminded people always willing to help.

Having friends that did a similar bootcamp in other schools, I always felt, in comparison, that I was not just another head in the crowd.

The teachers/mentors and my classmates are fantastic. If they can teach a nurse how to code, I reckon they can teach anybody!

Ian

As a teacher, I am not able to be flexible in my working hours so being able to attend evening lectures and work through the curriculum in my own time was very attractive.

The tutors were a great support too, incredibly patient, and explained concepts to me multiple times if I was struggling to grasp them.

Remote-first: How we are adapting

For us, the thought of moving online wasn’t something that was thrown upon us by COVID-19...it’s actually something we had in the pipeline almost a year prior to our hand eventually being forced. In that time period we had a vision of an online learning environment complemented by a bespoke interactive learning platform and a community of like minded learners.
