Teaching computer science shouldn’t take over your evenings
If you’re a secondary computer science teacher who cares deeply about your pupils but feels constantly behind, despite working far beyond contract hours, you’re not alone.
The Computing Classroom Membership was created to help you teach with confidence, without carrying the whole subject on your shoulders.
You’re not the only computer science teacher who feels overwhelmed
Most computing teachers don’t struggle because they lack ability.
They struggle because the subject moves fast, expectations are high and time is limited.
When every lesson takes hours to prepare and resources can’t be fully trusted, it’s easy to feel like you’re always playing catch-up, no matter how much effort you put in.
These lessons are:
Pedagogically sound
Engaging for pupils
Clear, practical and ready to use
So planning takes less time and decision-fatigue doesn’t follow you home.
Thousands of teachers have trusted these resources for years not because they’re flashy but because they work.
They respect the subject, respect your professionalism and support good teaching without adding to your workload.
What’s Inside the Membership
Computer science doesn’t have to be dull and teaching it shouldn’t be draining.
Everything inside the Computing Classroom Membership is designed to help you teach well, without carrying the whole subject on your shoulders.
Trusted, Ready-to-Use Computing Lessons: Complete, editable lesson plans mapped to the KS3 and KS4 computing curriculum ready when you need them. Use them as they are, adapt them if you want and trust that they’re academically sound.
Clear Guidance Even If You’re Short on Time or New to the Subject: Every lesson includes a practical video walkthrough, so you’re never left guessing how to teach it. Whether you’re a non-specialist or simply stretched thin, you can walk into class feeling prepared and confident.
Planning That Doesn’t Follow You Home: No more late-night lesson building or endless tweaking. Pick a lesson, know it will work, and move on with your evening more often.
Support for Teacher Wellbeing: Each month, you’ll find a new audio visualisation designed to help you switch off and recharge, alongside practical tips to reduce workload and avoid burnout. This support is optional, pressure-free, and there when you need it.
A Community That Understands the Reality of Teaching: You’ll also be part of a small, supportive group of computer science teachers who genuinely understand the challenges of the role. This isn’t another noisy Facebook group. It’s a calm, private space to ask questions, share frustrations, and get support from people who get it.
You can use the membership as much or as little as you need. It’s there to support you during busy weeks, difficult topics or whole terms without any pressure to “keep up”.
Simple, Ongoing Support
The Computing Classroom Membership is £30 per month.
Your membership gives you full access to all resources, video walkthroughs, wellbeing content and the teacher community with new materials added over time.
Cancel anytime. Stay as long as it supports you.
The PIN Method — The Structure Behind Everything Inside the Membership
Everything inside the Computing Classroom Membership is designed around one simple idea:
"Teaching needs you but it doesn't get to take all of you."
That’s why the membership is built on the PIN method.
A practical, classroom-tested approach that supports how teachers actually work, not how they’re expected to cope.
P – Purpose & Presence
Purpose & Presence is about feeling grounded and prepared in your classroom even on the days when time and confidence are low.
Every editable lesson plan and video walkthrough is designed to reduce last-minute panic and help you walk into lessons knowing what you’re teaching and why it matters.
So you can focus on your students not on second-guessing yourself.
I – Inspire Learning
Inspire Learning focuses on making computer science lessons that are engaging, relevant and genuinely enjoyable to teach.
With ready-to-use, up-to-date resources, you can bring concepts to life without spending hours rewriting materials whether you’re a non-specialist or an experienced computing teacher.
Lessons are designed to respect your expertise and your pupils’ curiosity.
N – Nurture Balance
Nurture Balance recognises that sustainable teaching matters.
The membership includes practical ways to reduce workload and mental strain from thoughtful lesson design to optional monthly audio visualisations, simple strategies and a supportive community that understands the realities of teaching computer science.
So your work can stay at work more often.
Everything You Need — Ready When You Need It
You’ll have access to a growing library of ready-to-teach computer science units designed so you don’t have to plan everything yourself or second-guess your choices.
You can dip in when you need support, reuse what works and trust that the content is sound without feeling pressure to “keep up” or use everything at once.
You don’t need to use everything.
Start where it helps most.
The membership is designed to support you at different points in the year.

Hi, I'm Nicky
I know what it’s like to sit at the kitchen table late into the night, trying to pull together a computing lesson when you’d rather be with your family or just asleep.
Years ago, I was juggling unfamiliar topics, endless emails and that constant feeling of never quite being enough.
I cared deeply about my students but felt stretched thin and torn between being a great teacher and having a life outside of work.
That experience is exactly why I created these resources.
Over the past 15 years, I’ve developed high-quality, curriculum-aligned computing lessons that are now trusted by more than 2 million teachers worldwide.
I’m a published author for Cambridge University Press and BBC Bitesize and my work has been shortlisted for national awards.
Everything I create is designed to make your life easier, saving you time, helping you feel prepared and supporting you to teach computer science well, without it taking over your evenings or your energy.
Because every teacher deserves to feel confident, supported and valued both in and out of the classroom.
Trusted by Thousands of Teachers Just Like You
Over 2 million teachers worldwide have trusted my resources, with a 4.8/5 rating and glowing feedback from teachers just like you.
