How AI can Elevate Indian Schools to Global Standards

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has revolutionized multiple sectors worldwide, and education is no different. The Indian education landscape currently caters to over 260 million students across 1.5 million schools, employing over 8.7 million primary and secondary teachers (source: The British Council, India). India’s efforts to integrate AI into education include policy initiatives like NEP 2020, teacher training programs, funding allocations, and tech partnerships. However, compared to the United States, China, and Singapore, which have robust national AI strategies, significant investments in resources & infrastructure, and well established AI curricula, India still has significant progress to make.

With AI revolutionizing job markets around the world, it’s vital for Indian schools to take the right measures to successfully align with global standards of education. Introducing AI into the curriculum from primary education onwards can prepare students to be successful in a tech-driven future. Today, we’ll explore some crucial steps that modern schools can take in order to embrace AI in education.
