Yardstick - What You Ought to Know

Yardstick's vision is to make learning enriching and joyful experience. Yardstick designs and implements learning programs for children, engaging their keen, inquisitive and imaginative minds via hands-on educational activities.At Yardstick, we believe in “celebrating children"! The curriculum focuses on unleashing creativity, real life application, and understanding rather than memorizing, inquiry based hands on approach.


Everything starts at Y! Our logo states it all. We are focused on increasing the creativity, curiosity and competency of children through our hands on learning modules.
We dare to Ask! 
  • Is the learning relevant to the age and knowledge of children?
  • Are the children experiencing something new?
  • Are we providing enough space for children to express their view and explore their creativity?

We reach children through different ways: Partnering with schools in implementing activity based learning; Training and support teachers; Large number of in school and after school workshops
What's in it for You! The structure of our curriculum and our professional support make the teachers feel like subject matter heroes, even in the most difficult subjects! Students get to participate in various National Level Hands-on workshops! The student learns the art of Discourse and Reflective Learning! Yardstick aims to complement daily classroom learning with our teaching and learning aids, things which each classroom in each school of a city may choose to adopt in this era of 'Demand for Quality Education'.
