About Stratum
Stratum runs small, live online AI courses for 15-18 year olds, taught by postgraduates experienced in teaching AI at undergraduate level. We run on the belief that AI already shapes daily life, and understanding how it works is now essential knowledge for everyone. To achieve this at secondary school level, our courses stay small — no more than ten students — and each course builds steadily towards a genuine hands-on project, using real data throughout. No coding or maths background is needed.
