The\u00a0World Game Coding Competition\u00a0evaluates student-created\u00a0game development projects\u00a0based on creativity, logical thinking, programming ability, and implementation, providing a global platform for young learners to showcase their coding and computational thinking skills.<\/p>\n

Multiple learners from the academy secured top ranks among Indian participants across different age categories, highlighting the growing impact of\u00a0hands-on robotics and coding education for young learners in India.<\/p>\n

In the\u00a013\u201314 years category, Ashtrix student\u00a0Shrinivasan V\u00a0secured an impressive\u00a0Global Rank 15, emerging as the\u00a0highest-ranked Indian participant (India Rank 1)\u00a0in that category.<\/p>\n

In the\u00a07\u20138 years category,\u00a0Vivaan Athreya\u00a0secured\u00a0India Rank 1, while\u00a0Seetharaman A\u00a0secured\u00a0India Rank 3, placing both students among the leading Indian performers in their age group.<\/p>\n

In the same age group,\u00a0Elvin Chen, an\u00a0international learner\u00a0from\u00a0Australia\u00a0studying with Ashtrix School of Robotics, secured\u00a0Global Rank 18 and Australia Rank 1\u00a0in the\u00a07\u20138 years category, further highlighting the academy\u2019s growing international student community.<\/p>\n

The academy also recorded strong results in the\u00a011\u201312 years category, where\u00a0Heimithran T\u00a0secured\u00a0India Rank 2\u00a0among Indian participants.<\/p>\n

Overall,\u00a0seven students from Ashtrix School of Robotics featured within the Global Top 50, including\u00a0five students within the Global Top 30, demonstrating consistent performance by students from a single robotics and coding academy on an international platform.<\/p>\n

According to a representative from\u00a0Ashtrix Robotics and Research Centre, the results reflect the importance of\u00a0project-based learning and early exposure to global technology platforms.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen students participate in international coding competitions, they learn to measure their work against global standards. These achievements demonstrate that students trained through structured robotics and coding programs in Chennai can compete confidently alongside peers from around the world,\u201d the representative said.<\/p>\n

Parents of participating students also highlighted the impact of global exposure through coding competitions and technology learning.<\/p>\n

\u201cWorking on a game development project and seeing it evaluated on a global platform has been extremely motivating. It builds confidence and helps children understand how their ideas and skills compare internationally,\u201d said a parent of one of the participants.<\/p>\n

The IKCC 2026 results underline the growing role of academies such as\u00a0Ashtrix School of Robotics\u00a0in nurturing young innovators through hands-on learning in\u00a0robotics, coding, artificial intelligence, and computational thinking.<\/p>\n

The achievements also highlight how students from Chennai are increasingly representing\u00a0India with pride on global technology platforms, showcasing creativity, innovation, and problem-solving abilities at an early age.<\/p>\n

With increasing interest in robotics classes and coding classes for kids in Chennai, institutions like Ashtrix School of Robotics are helping students build strong foundations in programming, computational thinking, and technology innovation from an early age.<\/p>\n
