The finale of the latest edition of Wrocław’s digital education programme supported by TIM

A formal gala in the auditorium of Wrocław University of Science and Technology on 10 June 2025 marked the end of the ninth edition of the Wrocław Koduje 2.0 programme. This school year saw another record level of participation: over 5,000 students completed more than 200,000 practical programming and database-related tasks. This edition’s partners were Wrocław University of Science and Technology and TIM SA.

Wrocław Koduje 2.0 is the world’s longest-running city-level IT education project (in place continuously since 2016). It is run by the Wrocław Centre for IT Services in partnership with the Liga Niezwykłych Umysłów Foundation. As part of the project, students from schools across Wrocław tackle practical programming tasks in languages such as C++, Python, SQL and Java. The recently closed ninth edition was expanded to include front-end technology training. Among primary schools, Primary School No. 1 came first; among secondary schools, High School of General Education No. 7 secured an undisputed first place.

The Wrocław Koduje 2.0 project is based on the Liga Niezwykłych Umysłów platform, which is a professional tool supporting schools in teaching programming. It has received a number of awards, including the Gold Medal at the 2020 EDUTECH International Trade Fair in Poznań and the 2023 Dubai GESS Awards title of Product for Secondary Schools. The platform has also hosted a wide range of projects and events, including the finals of the Polish National IT Championships and international programming competitions with schools from Poland, Germany, Ukraine, India, Macau and Bahrain.

“As a technology company operating in the e-commerce sector, we wholeheartedly support initiatives like Wrocław Koduje 2.0, which meaningfully improve digital competencies among young people. This partnership forms part of TIM’s ESG strategy. Please note that one of its priorities is sharing knowledge in the field of new technologies and programming,” highlights Piotr Tokarczuk, Management Board Member and Chief Financial Officer of TIM SA. “By supporting Wrocław Koduje 2.0, we are investing in the future, helping to build an innovative society. The record level of student participation in this edition highlights how important it is to design accessible and engaging forms of programming education,” he adds.

“We are very glad that another year has brought record-breaking participant activity. Even after nine years, there are no signs of fatigue or waning interest in the programme’s format. This is largely thanks to the cooperation with teachers in Wrocław and across Poland, as well as attentiveness to feedback from students. Thanks to this, we’re continuously developing the platform while maintaining its freshness and quality,” says Radosław Błasiak, President of the Liga Niezwykłych Umysłów Foundation. “In the new school year, we will open courses on data analysis modules and, most importantly, a new course on building AI solutions to provide students and teachers with a genuinely useful tool for learning the basic concepts behind AI. We’re really excited because preparations are underway for the tenth edition of Wrocław Koduje 2.0. This one will be an anniversary edition, and we intend to make it a truly exceptional event,” he announces.
