Microschools are basically a modern twist on the concept of a one-room school house. So smaller classes, student-led learning, a flexible curriculum, the works.

So for instance,  if traditional schools teach the photosynthesis phenomenon through textbook readings, a microschool would nudge students to conduct interactive experiments with plants and light.

In most of these schools, there’s no fixed curriculum. Its personalised as per the needs of each student. Sounds ideal right? 

Except for the fact that they are way more expensive than a regular school. And then there's the question of higher education. Sure these kids may be able to think more critically than a CBSE student, but what happens when they go to college? Or if they have to transfer to a traditional school at some point?

Despite these questions, more and more parents are embracing this new school of thought. Could it really be the next best thing in education? 

Tune in.
