🛑 Only 47% of Schools in India Offer Skill-Based Courses 😓 Just 29% of Students in Class 9+ Enrol in Them 🔻 A crisis hiding in plain sight. Think about it: In 2025, we're teaching kids how to memorize, not how to survive. Times of India headline should shake us all: “Less than half of Indian schools offer skill-based courses. Only 29% of senior students are enrolled in them.” Let that sink in. In a world of ChatGPT, automation, startups, and remote work... We're still sending our teens into the future with textbooks from the past. This isn’t a gap. It’s a gaping hole in our education system. While the world moves towards AI, robotics, creator economy, design thinking, and entrepreneurial grit… 2 out of 3 Indian students in Class 9–12 don’t even get the chance to build these skills. We're not underperforming we're underpreparing.. Most schools start skill-building only in Grade 9, and even then, it's optional. We’ve reduced something as critical as real-world skills to an elective. What’s at stake? India has the world’s largest youth population. But without action, we’re raising a generation that may: - Graduate without ever giving a presentation. - Never write a resume. - Never pitch, build, collaborate, or design. - Never feel ready to work, launch, or lead. This isn’t just a failure of policy. It’s a failure of imagination. The system must flip. Immediately. - Skill-building should start by Class 6, not Class 9. - Make it mandatory not just an extra class or hobby. - Partner with startups, creators, professionals to co-create courses that are actually useful. - Train teachers in new-age skills. Let them lead, not lag. - Reward students who build, create, hustle not just those who score 98%. Let’s stop blaming the kids. Start blaming the system. They’re not “too addicted to screens.” We just never gave them something meaningful to create on those screens. ( Unlike China , where social media algorithm is strictly based on education, teaching and growth mostly" ) What's your opinion over this ? would love to get more insight from you guys .

We all take history class in school, but never a future class. They teach the past, not the future. We’re guided by what was, but shouldn’t we be prepared for what’s coming? Education should include a future class—so we’re not just stuck in the past
