So, who exactly are

we?

StayQrious is a YCombinator company reengineering education to make it more relevant to the real-world. It is founded by Aanand Srinivas, former learning head of Khan Academy, in collaboration with Dr. Brian Johnsrud, founder of Stanford's learning science lab.

StayQrious Neoschool is a full-fledged virtual school built to replace conventional schools. It is a model built on the first principles of learning science and behavioral economics. Students work remotely with their peers and coach for 3 hours a day, and meet physically once every few months.

There are

3 core problems

in today's education system

1

Obsolete curriculum generations apart

2

Bookish methods of teaching at school

3

Mental health effects of conventional schooling

So how do we

solve

it?

1

A curriculum that allocates 30-40% time for developing core skills & knowledge, and trains teachers explicitly for this.

2

A practical 1:8 environment that simulates a modern workplace.

3

A structure inspired by Finland that puts the child’s right to mental health at its core.

Why schools

traditional schools

structurally fail

traditional schools

structurally fail

Traditional schools are built around the industrial era factory model

1

They are 80% passive and lecture based

2

Low on collaboration due to large class sizes

3

Low on actionable feedback due to lack of personalised attention

Students learn real world skills and knowledge, only after joining their first job. At StayQrious, we don't wait 18 years.

Imagine a

workplace

for kids

Essentially, your child will be treated as a fresher.

1
Instead of rote learning, your child will join a team of 7 other freshers from diverse backgrounds.
2
They have a Senior coach (kinda like a manager) and a junior coach (like a team lead) assigned to them
3
They have weekly goals & daily standups
4
They work on real world projects with deadlines and reviews
5
They sometimes work independently to learn the knowledge needed to complete the project
6
…and sometimes work together as a team
7
They have bi-weekly 1:1s with their coach to share how they feel, reflect on what’s going well, what’s not, etc.
8
They physically meet other Neoschoolers pan India once in two quarters to bond and build things together
