OUR APPROACH

Our Approach
Adhyayan provides the tools and processes to school leaders that helps them embed a data-driven, quality assurance system that involves all school stakeholders in the education ecosystem and improve the quality of leadership and learning in schools and other educational spaces. We believe that school improvement is owned when
  • It is based on the agreement between the evidence identified by self- review and external validation
  • The actions to be taken are co-created by the stakeholders and formed into an actionable plan
  • When support and handholding are provided so that new practice becomes an embedded habit
The focus of our partnership is improvement. As the critical friend, we accompany schools, leaders and teachers on their improvement journey. Our badging is proof of the current performance status, not a final destination.
The school as the vehicle for education brings life to the blind men and the elephant in the room. Over centuries there are almost as many theories of learning and of human development as there are societies. Yet, the input-output model of schooling created during the industrial revolution has been ubiquitous across the world in every country.

Wherever learning takes place is a school. Learning could be for children, adolescents or adults. A good school is characterised by happy, independent and collaborative learners. We strongly believe in a school’s self-led improvement journey.

Adhyayan was started in 2011 by school leaders and education consultants Kavita Anand and Spokey Wheeler from the recognition that transitioning from a one size fits all model to a child at the centre model requires school leaders with highly developed metacognition and an understanding of complexity theory and systems thinking.

The target was 100,000 schools by 2025.
