In collaboration with PANTHI ACADEMY Startup India, we are excited to introduce a new PASmartStart HOTS Curriculum (for Grade KG to 8) at our school — a forward-thinking and future-ready approach that focuses on High-Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) from the very beginning of your child’s educational journey.
Why This Curriculum?
In today’s reality, the 14 years of regular schooling (from KG to Class 12) — which mainly prepares students for school and board exams — is not enough to succeed in high-level competitive exams like NEET, JEE, CLAT, CUET, and others. Most students end up depending on coaching centers in Class 11 and 12. However, even after joining these coaching classes, there is no guarantee of getting a good rank or a government seat.
When children complete their higher secondary education (+2), they step into a crucial phase where various competitive exams determine their future academic and career paths. Many later realize they should have started preparing much earlier, but regret serves no purpose. Parents, the time to act is now — guide and support your children in planning ahead so they can face these challenges with confidence.
Imagine if students are trained early — to face tough, tricky, filtering-type questions that require deep thinking, clear understanding, and accurate application. With this strong foundation, your child can crack competitive exams without any external coaching, saving time, money, and stress.
Our Core Resource – MTG Workbooks
To achieve this, we are going to handle MTG Competitive Exams Workbooks as part of our core curriculum materials. These books are nationally recognized and include:
- Diverse types of questions from Olympiads and national-level tests
- Clear and structured solutions and answer keys
- Gradually escalating levels of difficulty
By regularly practicing with MTG workbooks, your child will strengthen:
- Reasoning ability
- Analytical thinking
- Problem-solving confidence
Competitive Exam Training Roadmap
We will train students from Class 1 onwards to face competitive exams through the following progression:
| Class Level | Recommended Exams | Skills Developed |

Final Word to Parents
Please do not panic or worry about marks in exams. This is not the usual mark-focused curriculum. We kindly ask you to focus not on marks, but on your child’s thinking skills and learning journey. Support them with love and patience. Their excellence will blossom naturally with time and guided training.
By starting early, we are not burdening them — we are freeing them from the last-minute pressure of board exam coaching and helping them become fearless, focused, and future-ready.
Let us work together to empower your child to shine without fear and achieve success through clarity, confidence, and capability.
