What Grade 7 learners gain at 21K?
Structured learning plans are the only way that the transition from basic training to Class 10 board readiness can be made. Your Grade 7 school at 21K matures in an analytic way so that they can cope with competitions.

We educate your children on how to think and not to learn by heart. They already start to acquire the practical skills that they will require in future, starting in Grade 7 with 21K School.
Board Exam Readiness
The Class 10 boards aren't a big deal for our learners. Learners in class 10th are tested using consistent feedback, AssessPrep assessments and CCE tests to analyse their errors prior to final board exams.
Scientific Inquiry Skills
Inquiries in the form of practical evaluations and discussions make sure learners are involved. They ought to be able to challenge their learning using evidence.
Communication & Collaboration
Communication and teamwork are the most interesting in that the children participate in scholastic seminars, debates, group projects and presentations.
Adolescent Resilience & Well-being
Mindfulness and social-emotional learning are also an option since we understand the significance of the mind-body balance between 12- to 13-year-old adolescents in between their academic training.
Global Citizenship
