My work in the field of education has provided me the privilege to visit over 1,000 top schools around the world and spend time inside their classrooms. I am passionate about bringing together teaching and learning ideas that transcend geographies, cultures, notions, learning styles and curricula and stitch them together seamlessly and effectively. I consider patience, persistence and planning as my greatest professional assets and when all of these come together to bring smiles to the faces of parents and children, I feel inspired to keep going.
Sharad Bhatia (IIM Lucknow)
Founder & CEO
I am deeply motivated by the cause of making high-quality, future-ready education accessible to every Indian child, no matter where they are in the world. As the Head of School at K8 School, the only Cognia-accredited online school in the world offering the CBSE curriculum, my commitment to this mission is unwavering. Education is not just about academics — it’s about building confidence, igniting the curiosity to inquire and ask questions, developing scientific temperament, fostering critical thinking, ensuring holistic development and keeping children connected to their roots. At K8 School, we provide a world-class learning experience that nurtures potential, celebrates individuality, and prepares students to excel in a global world. Together, let’s shape bright futures!
Madhuparna Gupta
Head of School
I am passionate about adding creativity, life and originality to every ‘frame’ of K8 School because ‘Adding colours to the lives of children around my country’ is my single-minded focus. For me, K8 School is the canvas on which I want to give every student the freedom and inspiration to paint dreams and then achieve them. Whether it is about designing the user interface of K8 School or rendering the final ‘look & feel’ to each learning-activity, I am driven by the motivation to make every pixel an inspiring and life-enthusing experience for every student of K8 School.
