Ekya is a community of children, educators, and parents where everyone learns together. Drawing on the 30-year educational legacy of the CMR Group of Institutions and the innovative methods of school systems around the world, our learning model goes beyond conventional norms.
We apply interdisciplinary skills to think differently and solve real-world problems. Inspired by the Sanskrit word “Aikyam”, which stands for oneness, the word Ekya evokes the ideals of community, collaboration, individuality, and unity.
We aim to empower young minds to make a difference in the world.
At Ekya, we prepare students for future challenges and equip them with skills and knowledge to thrive in a rapidly changing world.
Ekya is a community of children, educators and parents where everyone learns together.
At Ekya, thinking involves two important components: connect and enquire. Our learners think independently, explore new ideas, and develop their unique perspectives.
At Ekya, the key aspects of our approach are to create, care, collaborate, and communicate. These skills encourage students to be creative and innovative problem solvers.
We connect with the part of the child that celebrates seeking. Students find their purpose, passion and community here.
Students cultivate an understanding of their thoughts, feelings, emotions, and the role they play in the interdependence of systems and communities.
Students foster a way of relating to oneself, others, and humanity through kindness and empathy.
Students habituate attitudes, dispositions, and skills that are conducive to personal, social, and communal well-being.
The CMR Group of Institutions was created as a tribute to the visionary educationist Sri Chikka Muniyappa Reddy.
The CMR Group is spread across Bangalore, with 11 active campuses. The Group offers academic programs covering such topics as engineering, education, law, management, biosciences, business administration and psychology for undergraduate, postgraduate and doctoral levels.
We have partnered with the National Educational Trust, inaugurating the NPS International School in Singapore - a 6-acre campus. We enable children to learn through our schools, research centers, pre-university colleges and our private universities.
Ekya Schools is the latest addition in the CMR Group of K-12 schools.
Established in 1990, the Trust manages all the activities of the CMR Group of Institutions. It aims to give every student access to an equal education that is value-driven and well-rounded.
CMR(U) was established to advance university education in technical, health, management, and the life sciences. CMR(U) believes creativity is the key component to excel in our world. We recognise independent thinkers, artists, product leaders, designers, and innovators are the need of the hour.
Inculcating creative concepts and design thinking in our students, we develop skills such as teamwork, presentation, initiative, and research capability. CMR(U) aims to foster creative communities where students can be nurtured to make discoveries and share creations.
