I followed the scratch link. I think scratch useful as easy to teach but then there is nothing afterwards. There are fabulous courses - like
@funtechsummer who do weekly classes but are expensive. Needs to be for everyone. -

Our primary school would claim they do already - but two lessons of scratch in one year on ancient computers just puts children off

@PyConUK had some amazing sessions with kids. I think they used MicroBits.
