“From this point of view, the competency associated with information technology has made it possible to include part of the curriculum this early, unlike what was before and started in the 7th grade. With the new curriculum it starts in the fourth grade and of course the novelties we are gathered here today is the introduction of the coding concept for the first time  in the 8th grade” -said Nikola
