The gap

NCF's mandate is set. Classrooms aren't.

The NCF 2023 mandate

Experiential, competency-based learning

  • Learning by doing — observe, build and apply.
  • Group activities — collaborate, discuss, present.
  • Defined learning outcomes — clear, measurable skills.
The classroom reality

Willing, but under-resourced.

  • No lab infrastructure — daily experiments aren't feasible.
  • No teacher bandwidth — prep time is already maxed out.
  • Intent without capacity — the gap NCF can't close alone.
The global shift

This isn't an Indian experiment — the world has already moved. NCF 2023 just makes it official.

Inquiry-driven

IB schools are booming worldwide.

Self-paced

~4,000 Montessori schools in India and growing.

Zero homework

Finland: no standardised tests before 16.

Petrilabs bridges the gap — without breaking the timetable.

The 10x Teacher

What happens in the class?

An age-old, time-tested five-step cycle of learning — proven long before the modern classroom — with your teacher leading every step of the way.

Jigyasa

The hook

Teacher sparks curiosity with a question, using the 5-minute prep guide.

Bodh

The understanding

The core concept is unpacked and linked back to the textbook.

Abhyas

The practice

Guided practice to reinforce the concept before applying it.

Prayog

The experiment

Students unbox the mapped kit and run the experiment on their desks.

Prasar

The connection

Connect the concept across subjects and to current affairs — cross-curricular reach beyond the chapter.

How the teacher runs all of this — with less work, not more

Ready prep script

The teacher walks in with the day's hook and flow already prepared — no planning hours.

AI-assisted grading

Voice AI drafts evaluations of spoken and subjective answers; the teacher reviews and confirms.

Skills tracked automatically

Observe, Hypothesise and Apply captured as the class runs — with no extra marking.

Live Experiments

100% board-aligned. Zero lab infrastructure.

Every child does the real experiment right in the classroom — hands-on, board-mapped, and delivered ready to run. Here's why it's safe to say yes.

Exam-aligned, not extra-curricular

Mapped to your exact chapters, so it reinforces board preparation instead of competing with it.

CBSEICSEState

No big spends, no lab rooms

The lab arrives in a box. Nothing to build, budget for, or maintain — and nothing to set up or tear down.

Safe by design

Non-hazardous, non-shatter materials engineered for young hands — safe for every desk in the room.

Your Monthly Parent Touchpoint

The proof parents look forward to.

A branded growth report reaches every parent, every month — showing the skills a mark sheet can't. Meaningful connection all year, not just at the once-a-term PTM.

For the Principal: class-by-class syllabus completion, finally visible.
For the Teacher: skills captured as you teach — Observe, Hypothesise, Apply — with no extra marking.
For the School: a branded touchpoint that keeps parents close — all year, not just at the once-a-term PTM.
