Computing Grammar is a basic part of the Second Chance School degree course. It provides agilities in order to improve the student’s position in the digital world. The degree course is open for all at Second Chance Schools. The teacher according to the students’ needs and beliefs provides the guidelines to be followed. They can be updated from time to time. Teaching loops is elementary in the algorithm theory. In High Schools loops and algorithms are the main field at computing lessons. The usage of Microworlds software is up to the teacher in recent years. This phenomenon is very rare at Second Chance schools and this is the first time that it is implemented. Using a poll, students’ beliefs and views were stored and analyzed by the usage of statistical software in order to extract the results. Family situation, work and age constitute a strong factor of the student’s agilities.  Sex does not make any difference, fact that is confirmed by other researches.
