Estonia is implementing a new education program that will have 100 percent of publicly educated students learning to write code.
ProgreTiiger education will start with students in the first grade, which starts around the age of 7 or 8 for Estonians. The compsci education will continue through a student’s final years of public school...

Rather than truly teaching kids about computers, we’re teaching them to see the machines and programs as mysterious tools
We conjure the spirits of the computer with our spells

But seriously they need to do this right and I don't like how it doesn't give any real details on the program, god knows they're going to be shoving FIOC or BASIC or something equally useless and shitty which will just make them hate programming. If they ain't teaching them LISP, it's shit.
