The first online-only school in India – 21K School – has recently raised $5 million in pre-Series A round from Ronnie Screwvala, Co-Founder and Chairman, upGrad.
Founded in 2020 by Santosh Kumar, Yeshwanth Raj Parasmal, Dinesh Kumar and Joshi Kumar, 21K School aims to create a 100 percent online school offering children aged 3 to 18 years a choice of three curriculums – Indian, American and British.
The company aims to deploy the funds raised to augment its outreach to students in India and abroad, and strengthen its learning platform for data-driven instruction across all curriculums.
21K School is targeting to scale 10X to over 25,000 to 30,000 admissions in the next academic year.
