  • A personalised learning approach for every learner.

  • A learner-centric approach that encourages emotional intelligence, builds creative thinking, and creativity.
  • Local Learning Garage for physical community meetups and collaborative activities.
Why families here are switching

Why Hyderabad Parents Are Moving to Online School

Every counsellor conversation with Hyderabad families highlights these four reasons as why Hyderabad parents are moving to online school. And none of them is about the quality of the city's schools.

  • The commute

    Hours a day on the road

    For a Hyderabad family, a school which is just a few kilometres away can mean your child spending hours a day on the road, leaving before 7 AM and getting back to home mid-afternoon. Learning from the comfort of your home helps you give those commute hours back to your child.

  • The real cost

    Education Without the Hidden Extras

    In other schools, the uniforms, deposits, activity fees, transport, and yearly hikes add to the top of the published fee. Our learning fee is tuition-based only, with no additional campus or transport costs.

  • Mobility

    Seamless Learning from Any Part of the World

    You may have moved to Hyderabad or have to move out of Hyderabad on short notice. With our online learning, you can reduce the school transfers and eliminate the burden of new teachers and classmates with every shift.

  • Sport & pursuits

    Train Hard With Concentration Without Missing Class

    The leading chess, badminton, tennis, music and dance academies of Hyderabad train during the regular school hours. Our every class is recorded, which ensures that your child never has to select between their regular academics and passion.

Pathways

Which Curriculum Should a Hyderabad Family Choose?

Select the suitable curriculum for your child out of the available Indian Pathway and the British Pathway, each available from the early years to Grade 12.

Indian pathway

NIOS-certified online school

The Indian Pathway follows the National Curriculum Framework (NCF) for Grades 1 to 8, with Grade 10 and Grade 12 board exams through NIOS. Our facilitators adapt learning to your child's strengths, pace and goals, without compromising academic results, well-being or the joy of learning.

Moving from a state board or CBSE school mid-year

Moving mid-year is possible with 21K. Our admissions team helps Hyderabad families switch schools mid-year every week. The key role is to guide you on the transfer certificate of your child from the current board and then hold a detailed placement conversation. It helps our team place your child at the right level at the time of joining, instead of repeating a year. We further support with a bridging plan if there is a difference in the learner’s syllabus. The Grade 9 or Grade 11 parents must tell us this plan early due to the board registration timelines, so that we can plan accordingly.

Who is it for?

Is online school right for your Hyderabad family?

Online school is not right for every child, and we agree with that. However, it works best for the following Hyderabad families:

  • The young athlete or performer

    Scheduled training or rehearsing during school hours, and tired of choosing between their passion and academics.

  • The relocating family

    An overseas posting, move across the city, or a transferable job that would have meant an exhaustive search for a new school.

  • The globally-minded parent

    Wanting an Edexcel or Cambridge qualification from an early stage for planning undergraduate study abroad.

  • The child who learns differently

    An individual support plan for the child who needs a different learning pace and a quieter learning environment, which a school with a 40-seat classroom can not offer.

  • The family reclaiming time

    Reclaiming your 12 to 15 hours a week which were lost in Hyderabad's traffic during the school run and wanting that time back for the child.

  • Not sure yet?

    Talk it through with a counsellor who knows the Hyderabad school landscape. No script, no obligation.

The 21K crew

340+ educators behind your child’s day

Our framework does not limit facilitators to within a five-kilometre radius of a campus, but to anywhere in the world. Every teacher is subjected to methodical training in online teaching, an entirely different art from classroom teaching and is not taken too seriously by most schools.

That is what a family in Hyderabad would say: your child has a Physics teacher and an Art teacher, each in yet another city, and the academic leadership that hires and evaluates them is yet another group.

  • "Entire curriculum looks well planned and age appropriate. Every facilitator is so knowledgable and incredible who teaches with so much patience and addresses every question with so much ease. My child Siya, has grown into a confident student because of the unwavering support given by the facilitator and the whole family of 21kSchool. I thank the school for helping my child into her overall development."

    Siya BahetiHyderabad
  • "It has been more than three years since my child joined 21k School, and our journey has been truly fulfilling. We are very happy with the school's teaching methods and practical approach, which have brought remarkable growth in my child's learning and overall development. What touches us most is the way the teachers recognize the unique abilities of each student and encourage them to pursue their individual goals with confidence. The school administrators further support this progress by introducing meaningful programs where children can showcase their talents, explore their interests, and improve through constructive feedback. This nurturing environment has made a real difference in my child's education, and we feel grateful to be part of the 21k School community."

    Srinikesh KottalaHyderabad
  • "I am a very Happy Parent of 21K school for the third consecutive year... The journey was smooth. Well qualified and dedicated teachers, helpful Admin staffs were the hallmark. Hope to continue the same in the next academic year."

    Kamala TParent of Tarun KalyanHyderabad
  • "My experience with 21K school has been wonderful the facilitators curriculum books all are wonderful children can excel in their academics a lot with this school."

    AsaduddinHyderabad
  • "I would really like to appreciate 21k for what it has provided, a curriculum in which a child could thrive and prosper. The school has provided flexibility and great resources to cater to the learning journey and prioritises on enhancing skills. We were initially a tad bit reluctant as parents, as our generation has always been to a school but never thought of branching out to an online school for our kids. This massive shift to a unique learning style and the structured classroom and course has proved to benefit us in many ways. The teachers and the management has been very supportive and have valued the students, parents and their opinions. My children have been in this school for the past 4 years and this is their 5th academic year. So, thank you very much for everything the school has done."

    Mariyam KhanParent of Umar, Uswaan and Zirwa Zohair KhanHyderabad
  • "Good day and thanks for the opportunity for sharing the feedback. I would say 21k has helped my daughter tremendously in focusing on her passion for cricket. The flexibility and availability of recordings has helped her successfully manage her studies along with her cricket coaching classes. The freshness in body language in attending cricket classes post her studies is clearly visible. Unlike traditional schooling she used to get tired and exhausted after school which would hardly push her mentally to go out again for cricket classes. The teachers too are supportive and accommodating. It has worked wonders for her and for us too as parents. Studies too she is doing good at which i believe is sufficient for her even if she chooses academic career in near future as plan B. 21k has come to us as blessings from God."

    Amit KhatriParent of Drishti KhatriHyderabad
  • "We're really happy with our experience at 21K School. My child has become more independent, confident, and comfortable with online learning. The flexible schedule and supportive teachers have made learning much more engaging and stress-free. We've also noticed improvement in communication skills and overall academic consistency. Thank you to the entire 21K team for creating such a positive learning environment."

    Adina BaigHyderabad
  • "Dear 21K School Team, We've had a very good experience with 21K School. The teachers are supportive, and the flexible learning environment has really helped my child grow in confidence and learning. Thank you!"
