Introduction

Using the world's leading innovative programming system for youth, Coding Olympics Singapore (COS) has made millions of students fall in love with programming learning through its award-winning programming practice system. The platform is used in over 160 countries worldwide for teaching youth programming or informatics competitions.

The Coding Olympics Singapore has been held for three years, mainly for Singaporean students, supplemented by Malaysian, Indonesian and Thai students. Starting from 2023, the Science Centre under the Ministry of Education of Singapore has entered into a strategic partnership with ASDAN China to invite Chinese students to participate for the first time in this programming interest event for elementary school students in the Asia-Pacific region.

The CoffeeScript language used in the programming platform allows for a friendly, simple interface and easy operation. Through game breaking exercises, students can easily master programming thinking skills, improve mathematical logic thinking, and successfully achieve the leap from no-experience to beginner level of coding.
