Why It’s Important to Support Young Girls in Coding: Especially Early
Why It’s Important to Support Young Girls in Coding: Especially Early
When it comes to learning how to code, early exposure can shape how confident a child feels about their abilities. That’s true for all kids, but especially for young girls.
Research shows that by age 6, many girls begin to internalize the belief that certain fields—like engineering, robotics, or computer science, “aren’t for them.” These beliefs don’t come from a lack of ability. They come from subtle messages in media, school, and everyday life.
At ItsAllCode, our Orange County coding classes for kids are built to challenge those narratives.
We don’t believe in forcing anyone into STEM, we believe in keeping doors open. For young girls especially, the right kind of support can make all the difference:
- We build confidence early. Through project-based learning and patient mentorship, girls learn that making mistakes is part of becoming great at coding.
- We create a community. Our classes encourage collaboration and curiosity, not competition.
- We offer relatable role models. From our instructors to our guest speakers, we show girls what’s possible when they stick with it.
We’re proud to be a coding school near Fullerton, Irvine, Anaheim, and greater Orange County that supports all young learners, especially those who haven’t always seen themselves in tech.
