Below the Quote on Year Ender from Prajodh Rajan, Co-Founder and Group CEO, Lighthouse Learning

“The year 2025 has been a year of meaningful progress for school education in India. The increased emphasis on the foundational stage, the operationalization of new curriculum frameworks, and the planned integration of AI across the K–12 journey have together signaled a clear and mature direction for the sector. These developments reflect a collective commitment to strengthening learning ecosystems, elevating teaching practices and ensuring that students are better prepared for a dynamic future.

Alongside policy momentum, we have seen a shift in expectations from families and the education community. Parents are seeking deeper learning experiences in the early years; teachers are working to balance academic rigour with socio-emotional development and experiential learning; and schools are being encouraged to offer continuity and coherence across the Pre-K to K-12 journey. This alignment across stakeholders is a positive indication of the sector’s steady evolution toward higher-quality and more inclusive learning environments.

As we look ahead to 2026, the priorities are becoming clearer: supporting teachers as they navigate new pedagogical demands, integrating technology in ways that enhance rather than overwhelm learning, and ensuring that every child receives a secure, engaging and developmentally appropriate educational experience. The sector is well-positioned for this next phase, and our shared responsibility, as contributors to the nation’s education mission, is to guide this transition thoughtfully, with a focus on sustained impact and the long-term wellbeing of our learners.”
