Founder’s Message

At Ekya, the student is at the core of everything we do – from the physical design of each campus to how our educators are trained and how we design learning. We strongly believe that nothing is beyond the grasp of our students if the right platform is provided. As a result, our students are independent thinkers and problem-solvers who take ownership of their learning beyond the limitations of textbooks.

The Ekya Learning Centre works relentlessly to create an evolving and dynamic curriculum. It combines the best educational practices from around the world to build purposeful and impactful learning programs. Frequent feedback from our educators gives us context-driven data to further improve the curriculum. Seamless integration of the Ekya curriculum, culture, assessment, and instruction challenges and engages our students daily.

Students of Ekya are mindful, respectful, and confident in their interactions with diverse situations. Ours is a culture of high expectations, supported by a strong community. Ekya educators and parents work in partnership to build a safe, conducive environment that allows each child to excel.

I encourage progressive educators, parents, and students to join our community as we bring learning to life.”
