The Akanksha FoundationWe are #BackToSchool today!
Our students are ready and excited to join school right from their homes because at Akanksha, #HarGharEKSchool is the new normal.
What is special about today is that our students have logged in for their classes with their parents who are not only our partners but are also our co-educators for the students.
We at Akanksha have always integrated technology to enhance the learning experience of our students. In these testing times, our past experiences and expertise in engaging our students through technology will allow us to facilitate comprehensive and blended learning for all our students.
