The Kidspreneur group has been perfecting its approach to 21st Century education over the past 8 years starting with our Founder, Mohanalakshmi, and her husband, Kalasalingam.S, together with their award winning curriculum. It began in 2012 when Mohana, then a college student, observed how students were so unprepared after 12 years of formal primary and secondary school education (it still happens). She set out to infuse elements she felt were needed to create a rich and engaging educational experience: gamification, simulation, presentation, and coursework to name a few. Fast forward to today, the Kidspreneur has impacted over 15,000 students in India and 4,80,000 students across Asia continues to grow confident and creative young individuals. And now with Kidspreneur, our next big feat is nurturing future entrepreneurial leaders. Innovation is the name of the game for us.While Kidspreneur has been around for a decades, our methodology and delivery evolves with time to ensure that students are getting the best education possible.
Two decades ago, careers like social media strategists or mobile app developers were unheard of. Similarly, the jobs our students find in the next decade may not exist yet. As the job landscape evolves, students need to have an entrepreneurial mindset to adapt quickly to changes. Such a mindset enables one to be quick in spotting and seizing opportunities, while being creative with new ideas. This will prepare students to “identify and ride trends” and react nimbly even as new developments emerge” To this end, Kidspreneur offers an entrepreneurship curriculum for students between 7 to 18 years, where students learn to apply what they have learnt in the classroom, to the real world. One team, for instance, brainstormed and pitched ideas to help them solve the real world problem. At the end of the programme, students are given opportunity to pitch their ideas, they were not just being entrepreneurial but were also honing their skills in communication.
