THE SIZE OF THE SCHOOL COMMUNITY AND ITS EXPECTED GROWTH With about 32 million NRIs (Non-Resident Indians) and about 2.5 million more joining them every year, Indians comprise the world’s largest diaspora. With more and more parents either returning on a permanent basis or testing the water in India, it can be safely predicted that this section of the international education market is on a growth spree. Parents are looking at educating their kids in a syllabus and environment that is constant, given that their ecosystem is often changing in the physical world. IT professionals and others working in blue-chip companies often fi nd themselves staying in one place for the sake of their child’s education, with some even sacrifi cing their careers. Online education is the only answer to this problem. But it can be a solution only if the education provided
is of very good quality. 21K is the perfect solution, off ering diff erent syllabi like the Indian curriculum, American curriculum, and British curriculum. The school has international accreditations and partnerships with Cambridge Assessment International Education, The Keystone School, MSA CESS, Cognia, Stride, Inc. and Pearson Edexcel.
LESSON DELIVERY AND PEDAGOGY The lessons are delivered through live and interactive classes. Class recordings are available and can be accessed anytime. Chat boxes and message centres also help students interact with the teacher all through the day. The 21K School prides itself in not just adopting

technical advancement but actually spearheading them through gamifi cation, AI and more. We recently became the world’s fi rst school to transition into Web 3.0. At 21K School, we are immensely proud to reimagine
education with emerging technologies like Blockchain, Metaverse, NFTs, and more to instil learning, thinking,
and creativity in the DNA of our students. We are the world’s fi rst Web 3.0 school to be implementing an NFT Marketplace, so children can have the opportunity to understand how cutting-edge technology can help them turn their creativity into fi nancial empowerment. We have not only inculcated the love of learning
through constant and exciting games, but also given children a feeling of creativity and independence by actually rewarding them through ‘Learn to Earn’ model which can be used to pay the fees or redeemed in other ways. 21K School is also introducing gamifi cation within its classrooms, where students can complete their homework and assignments in a gamifi ed manner, driven by the digital school’s artifi cial intelligence enabled Learning Management System. This will not only create deeper engagements for students, but will also encourage them to fi nish their given tasks with perfection. Based on the 16 attributes called ‘Habits of Mind’
by Costa and Mallick, 21K School works toward also developing the all-round child to make him or her future- ready. With the Methodology Learning Mechanism, we encourage children to learn through application rather than merely theoretical rote learning methods.
PUPIL ENGAGEMENT AND INTERACTIONS IN THE CLASS Classes are streamed live by teachers who are trained to interact with kids online. An environment of friendly engagement and exchange is created with constant monitoring. 21K off ers a ratio anywhere between 10 to 18 students
to one teacher, which enables the teacher to interact one- on-one with each child. The Curriculum is designed to be mindful of the varied pace at which diff erent students assimilate and understand content. This means that every single student gets to set his/her own pace of learning and achieve academic goals. Plus, our anytime-
