Introducing AI & Computational Thinking at Akshara International School: Preparing Future-Ready Learners

At Akshara International School, we are committed to empowering our students to thrive in a rapidly evolving world. In alignment with the national initiative to integrate Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Computational Thinking (CT) from early grades, we are excited to announce the introduction of these pioneering learning pathways across classes starting the 2026-2027 academic year.

Why this matters

The world is changing fast. Our students face new challenges and opportunities—from robotics and automation to digital citizenship and global collaboration. By embedding AI and CT into our curriculum, Akshara aims to equip learners with:

  • The ability to think algorithmically, break down problems, and explore creative solutions.
  • Foundational tech literacy to understand and engage with AI, rather than just use it.
  • Ethical awareness and social responsibility, ensuring that technology serves the common good.
  • Confidence to adapt, innovate, and lead in future workplaces and life.
Our implementation approach

At Akshara International School:

  • Starting from Grade 3, students will participate in modules designed around Computational Thinking and age-appropriate AI concepts — progressing year-by-year with complexity.
  • We will integrate hands-on activities, project-based learning, coding, data-exploration, robotics kits, and interactive tools in our Digital & Innovation Labs.
  • Teachers will receive capacity-building workshops to deliver these modules effectively, with ongoing support, resources and peer-collaboration.
  • Ethical dimensions—such as bias in AI, digital safety, and responsible use of technology—will be woven into the learning journeys.
  • The curriculum will align with our academic, co-curricular and character-building goals — ensuring holistic development, not just technical skills.
What students will gain
  • A strong foundation in logic, sequencing, abstraction and patterns — all crucial for problem-solving across disciplines.
  • A growth mindset: students learn to experiment, iterate and learn from mistakes.
  • Digital fluency: understanding how data is used, how machines learn and how technology is shaping societies.
  • Leadership readiness: the ability to collaborate, design, present and apply ideas meaningfully.
  • Ethical perspectives: recognising that technology should serve people, communities and the planet.
What this means for parents & our Akshara community

We invite our parent-partners to engage with this journey:

  • Encourage children to explore and question how technology affects everyday life.
  • Support small experiential projects at home — e.g., simple robotics, data tracking, or coding games.
  • Attend our school workshops and showcases where students present their AI/CT learning.
  • Understand that this is not a replacement for core subjects—but a powerful enhancement that builds 21st-century capabilities.
Looking ahead

Akshara International School remains focused on holistic education—academic excellence, character formation, creativity, physical well-being and global outlook. The incorporation of AI & CT is a bold step in this direction: ensuring our students are not just ready for the future—they help invent it.

We are excited to embark on this journey together.
