About RTC
We’re reimagining how girls see tech, through role models they relate to and industries they care about.
Tech isn’t just wires and code, it’s creativity, identity, and solving real problems.
At Recode the Curriculum, girls will design digital clothing, experiment with beauty tech, tackle everyday health challenges, and develop their own app ideas, all through hands-on, playful activities.
They’ll explore how AI can automate everyday tasks, how tech can make life simpler, and how fashion tools like digital wardrobes can solve real frustrations.
From styling solutions to biotech breakthroughs, they’ll be empowered to see tech not just as something to use, but as something to shape, on their own terms.
A few great THINGS
Our mission
We believe the future of tech needs more girls — not just as coders, but as leaders, critical thinkersm, creators, and entrepreneurs.
That means giving them:
01
Only 0.3% of UK AI VC funding goes to all-female teams
02
Just 15% of girls take Computer Science A-Level
03
Since ICT was renamed Computer Science, girls’ participation dropped from 43% to 21%
04
China teaches AI in schools — the UK is falling behind
05
This isn’t just a pipeline issue. It’s a perception and curriculum issue. Tech feels distant, unrelatable and that’s what we’re here to change.
First Event
May 7, 2025
Francis Holland School, London
Our pilot event will bring together five phenomenal female founders to speak, share their journeys, and lead hands-on workshops with students.
Girls will explore how to bring ideas to life — from building biotech tools and fashion apps to understanding funding, branding, and taking real products to market.
Following the event, we will conduct a survey with attendees to measure the impact on their confidence, creativity, and perception of tech.
Meet the Founding Circle of Recode the Curriculum” – bringing together leaders from biotech, beauty tech, fashion, and AI to close the gender gap in STEM.
What’s next
We’re building a national programme of events, with more workshops, founders, and interactive sessions across schools and communities.

Because if we don’t act now, we risk raising another generation of girls who believe tech isn’t for them — and that’s a future none of us can afford.
“Only by building out pathways for an inclusive future in technology can we reap the benefits of a new generation of female leaders, investors, deal makers and entrepreneurs in STEM.”

“If we don’t act now, we risk raising another generation of girls who think tech isn’t for them—a future we can’t afford.”
Louise Laing
“Girls should grow up knowing they have the power to shape the future of tech – by contributing ideas, solving real-world problems, and designing systems that will define tomorrow.”
Simone Oloman
“By building the tools, we shape the future , preserving the human hand in a digital era ensures that future remains authentically ours.”
Dr Alex Box
“I was once that girl—curious, unsure, full of dreams. Today, I’m building the future of women’s health through biotech. We owe it to the next generation to show them that their ideas belong in tech, and that they do too.”
