Pramaan
By 2030, a good degree won't be enough.
The world will pay for what your child can ask, build and lead. Pramaan is an after-school curriculum that grows curiosity, agency and confidence in kids aged 11 to 15.
- 90 minutes a week, one problem, one thing to build
- A four-line note on your child every Sunday
- They graduate with a Pramaan certificate and a holistic report
How Pramaan works
From one WhatsApp message to your child's first lab, and a note to you every week after.
Say hi on WhatsApp
Tell us your child's age and your area. One message, no forms.
We send the nearest lab
Within a day you get the lab closest to you, its dates and times, and a seat held for your child.
Your child joins the first lab
90 minutes, in a small team, with one problem to explore and one thing to build.
A note every Sunday
Four lines about your child: what they built, what they asked, what they tried, what they are still curious about.
The research behind our conviction.
Guess first. Then look.

Three things the builders of tomorrow are made of.
Curiosity
to seek out problems they want to solve.
Agency
to act on them, and decide what comes next.
Confidence and grit
to keep building when it breaks, and finish.
Grown on purpose. Measured every session. Shown to you.
90 minutes a week. Here is what your child takes home.
They play before they learn
Every lab opens with a game that has a rule hidden in it. Curiosity is switched on before a single question is asked.
They guess before they look
A number is hidden. They commit to a guess and say how sure they are, then test it with questions. Thinking before searching becomes a habit.
They argue with reasons
Claims are argued in pairs. Agreeing or disagreeing needs a reason, and the evidence, not the loudest voice, decides.
They build, break and finish
A team build with a target. When it breaks, they fix it, redraft and finish, and say in three lines what they learned.
A four-line note on your child, from the first session.
Not a report card. Four lines about your child and nobody else: what they built, what they asked, what they tried that did not work, and what they are still curious about.
The Pramaan promise
- A four-line WhatsApp note on your child every Sunday, from the first session.
- At the end, they graduate from Pramaan with a certificate, along with a one-page holistic report mapped to the Holistic Progress Card.
- We work until every child leaves curious, confident and ready to lead, and we show you the count.
First 3 cohorts: free.
For Learner's Labs in Bengaluru. 15 children per cohort, ages 11 to 15. Outside Bengaluru? Parents and schools across India are welcome to write to us.
Bring Pramaan inside your school, after the bell.
We work with schools across India, not just in Bengaluru. Grades 6 to 8, up to 24 learners in six teams, run in person with your teacher in the room. Every child graduates with a Pramaan certificate and a one-page holistic report mapped to the Holistic Progress Card, and parents get a note every Sunday.
Questions parents ask
Is this tuition?
No. Nothing in a lab is from the syllabus and nothing is graded. The habits a lab grows, asking, knowing what you know, building and finishing, are the ones that also make marks.
Where and when are the labs?
Across Bengaluru, after school and on weekends. The next labs by area are on the Learner's Lab page. Tell us your area on WhatsApp and we send you details on the nearest.
Who is in the room?
Our team runs every lab in person, with a second adult in every room, for a maximum of 15 children per cohort, in teams of three to five.
Do you photograph the children?
Not without your consent. On demo days children present what they built, and only with a parent's yes does a child's name or work appear anywhere we publish.
We are not in Bengaluru. Can we join?
The free Learner's Lab cohorts are in Bengaluru. Schools anywhere in India can bring Pramaan in, and parents outside Bengaluru are welcome to write to us on WhatsApp; we will tell you what is possible near you.
Does my child get a certificate?
Yes. At the end of a cohort every child graduates from Pramaan with a certificate, along with a one-page holistic report on where they started, what they built and asked, and where they ended.
What does my child need to bring?
Nothing. We bring every material, and there is nothing to prepare before a lab.
