Why do we exist? What do we do?
The quality of school education available to students from low-income communities across India is abysmal.Their chances of attending college, or building a career are significantly lower than their high-income peers, condemning them to a life without voice or choice. iTeach was born in 2015 to challenge this status quo and create a level playing field for ALL children.
We run free and high-impact schools and an exceptional college-to-career program for the most
disadvantaged students in Pune and Navi Mumbai. We are known for our world-class career development, our result-oriented team culture, and our student-centric school design. Read more about us at www.iTeachSchools.org.
