What’s the National Computer Science School Challenge?
The NCSS Challenge is a programming competition open to all school students and teachers. The Grok Learning team have been running coding competitions like the challenge for over 12 years.
The NCSS Challenge is unlike any other programming competition. We’ll teach you how to program as we go along, rather than expecting you to be an expert already. If you’re a seasoned coder, we have something for you too – the problems range from relatively simple to mind-bendingly hard.
Starting on Monday 30th July, 2018 and running for about 5 weeks, we will release notes and problems containing the information you will need to complete the week’s programming challenges.
There’s a Challenge stream to challenge anyone!
Every stream of the NCSS Challenge features:
- Content aligned to the Australian Curriculum: Digital Technologies
- Intelligent automarking and instant feedback
- Learn to code as you go along (you don’t need to be an expert!)
- Solve exciting real-world problems
- Compete against students around the world
- Online support from expert tutors
- Earn points to climb the leaderboard
- The NCSS Challenge is for school students from upper primary to all levels of high school; there’s a stream to match every student’s ability
All streams are included in an all-access subscription (see our pricing). Register a free account and start coding!
