WhiteHat Jr joins hands with 500 schools across the country for educating students about coding language. On Tuesday, the WhiteHat Jr said we want to aim at a blending program that combines the power of an online platform with a classroom model. It has signed up with schools, representing more than 1.25 lakh students who will learn coding through a blended curriculum.
Acquired by edtech major Byju's, WhiteHat Jr aims to train 1 million students via the 'physical-digital blended model' next academic year, where children can learn and collaborate with their peers. WhiteHat Jr founder and CEO Karan Bajaj said ''The edtech company has received a very positive response to the offering, with schools showing massive interest in introducing next-generation coding skills to their students. Leveraging the strong in-bound, WhiteHat Jr has signed up 500 schools across the country, representing more than 1.25 lakh students who will learn coding through the blended curriculum." He noted that the company's mission to empower a whole generation with future skills is coming to full fruition. The model minimizes dependencies on school infrastructure with bare minimum requirements such as a computer lab and internet access.
Bajaj said this is a flexible program that can be adjusted to suit the requirements of schools. The testament of this effective model is the fact that over 500 schools from 245 cities across 24 states and union territories have already joined the company's plan, and many more are signing every week. The program delivers three key features proprietary curriculum, physical-cum-digital access, and teacher training program.
