Class 1 → Class 10 An impactful arc

Schools prepare children for academic success.
We prepare them for life beyond it.

Life Prep is a life-skills subject with a class, a book, a plan and ten years of runway, taught by your school's own teachers. We prepare them first.

01 — The gap

Every teacher already knows the gap is there.

We support teachers with the structure and materials to help close it.

Academic preparation is thorough and well resourced. Preparation for everything beyond the examination hall is left largely to chance, even though the world children enter is increasingly complex and the capabilities that sustain them there appear on no timetable.

Vocational subjects prepare a child for a living. Life skills prepare them for a life.

Sustaining a friendship. Managing money responsibly. Recognising when a situation is unsafe, and knowing how to speak up about it.

Not a one-off workshop Not a routine assembly An impactful subject.
Life Prep

A life-skills curriculum that runs from Grade 1 to Grade 10.

Not a course a child completes. An arc a child grows with across ten years — built so that a school's own teachers teach it well, every week, whether you start with a few grades or run the full ten years.

Plug and play
Age-appropriate material, prepared in advance.
Every class arrives written, pitched to the year group and ready to teach. No teacher is handed a difficult topic and left to work out the pitch alone.
One child, one book
One they write in, keep and take home.
Lesson plans
Written before the class starts. Nothing to prepare.
Teacher support
A workshop, a manual, and a number to call.
Assessment & grades
What isn't measured is what gets skipped.
Core and optional
Each school chooses what its community is ready for.
Inter-school olympiad
Evidence a principal can show, aligned to NEP.
02 — The ten-year arc

We revisit rather than repeat.

The same strand meets a child in Class 2, Class 5, Class 8 and Class 10 — each time at the depth they can hold. Nobody outgrows the lesson; the lesson grows with them.

03 — How we teach it

Four pillars, and we hold ourselves to all four.

Pillar one
Continuous

Ten years, one arc. The programme doesn't stop when a child turns out to be quiet, or struggling, or eleven.

We finish what we start.

Pillar two
Real

Nothing abstract. Not just an overview of "financial literacy", but what a PAN card actually is.

If a child can't picture it, we haven't taught it.

Pillar three
Honest

We say the hard things at the age a child is ready for them — safety, money, growing up, difficult situations.

A child who knows is safer than a child who is shielded. Every syllabus splits into core and optional, so each school chooses.

Pillar four
Rigorous

Built with rigor — age appropriate, sequenced, and reviewed before it reaches a classroom.

The same rigour runs through the whole approach: timetabled, written plans, teacher support, assessment and grades.

04 — Beside, not above

We prep the teacher.
The teacher preps the child.

Nobody is handed a lesson on communication and told to manage. Orientation first, the manual second, the lesson plan already written, and someone to call when it stalls.

No teacher walks into a hard topic unprepared.
No extra evenings — the planning is already done.
Nobody in the chain is left holding it alone.
Step one
Orientation
A workshop for the teachers who will teach it, run before the first class of the year.
Step two
Manual
A printed handbook they keep, covering how to handle each strand and each difficult moment.
Step three
Lesson plan
Every class mapped and already written, with the difficult ones scripted rather than left to instinct.
Step four
Someone to call
When a teacher has a query, they have support the same day.
05 — Who it's for

Four people
who trust this.

Our model
06 — Programme impact

What isn't measured is what gets skipped.

So we measure it — with term assessments that sit on the report card, and by asking the people who teach it. At the end of 2025–26 we surveyed every Life Prep teacher across our partner schools. Here is what came back.

How we measure
Assessed and graded
Term assessments that sit on the report card, plus regular teacher and school interaction so classroom feedback goes back into the material.
How we experience
In the classroom
Classroom interaction, teacher feedback, and the outcome presented by students in the form of presentations and other inputs.
What counts most
Behaviour in and of itself
Behaviour that holds and doesn't change or shift with circumstances.
A child who started saving. A child who stopped being afraid to speak. Behaviour is the measure, not a proxy for it.
