In a powerful step toward transforming school education, Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan (KVS) and the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi (IIT Delhi) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to strengthen STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) learning for students and teachers across India.
This milestone marks the first-ever collaboration between KVS and any IIT for STEM outreach — a move that aligns perfectly with Wayo Labs Junior’s mission to inspire young minds and make technology education more engaging and accessible.
The partnership builds on IIT Delhi’s ongoing outreach efforts like the Sci Tech Spins (STS) Lecture Series, which has already reached over 3,000 KV students from Delhi-NCR this year. These sessions bring scientific concepts to life through fun experiments, hands-on activities, and real-world examples that spark imagination and curiosity among learners.
At the MoU signing event, key representatives from IIT Delhi — including Prof. Rangan Banerjee (Director), Prof. Arvind K. Nema (Deputy Director, Operations), and Prof. Dhanya (Dean, Academics) — joined Smt. Prachi Pandey, IA&AS, Commissioner, KVS and Joint Secretary, Ministry of Education. They discussed how existing IIT Delhi initiatives, such as Manasvi: A STEM Mentorship Programme for High School Girls, could be expanded to benefit more students and educators across the KVS network.
Empowering Students and Teachers Alike
As part of the collaboration, KV students and teachers will get hands-on exposure to innovative STEM activities conducted by IIT Delhi’s Office of Academic Outreach & New Initiatives. IITD faculty and student mentors will also conduct interactive workshops in KV schools — blending classroom learning with real-world applications of science and technology.
Teachers will receive specialized training in emerging tech tools and modern teaching methods, enabling them to create more engaging, inquiry-based classrooms. A structured feedback system will ensure that both students and educators help shape the evolution of these programs.
Wayo Labs Junior’s Vision: Learning by Doing
At Wayo Labs Junior, we celebrate and support initiatives like this that empower children to think creatively, experiment freely, and explore STEM in a playful yet meaningful way. Collaborations between institutions like IIT Delhi and KVS reflect the same vision we uphold — nurturing a generation of problem-solvers and innovators who will lead India’s tech-driven future.
Together, efforts like these pave the way for a stronger, smarter, and more curious young India — exactly the kind of future Wayo Labs Junior dreams of building.
