A single, rising progression

A child's grade maps automatically to the right track at registration. As they move up through school, each track builds on the last - and the same transparent skill rating follows them throughout, so progress is always comparable.

How partnership works

Frequently asked questions

What parents and coordinators ask most about the tracks.

How do I know which track my child is in?

A child's grade maps automatically to the right track at registration: Foundation for Classes 2 to 4, Explorer for Classes 5 to 8, and Innovator for Classes 9 to 12. You do not have to choose - the track is set by school grade so rankings stay fair.

Can my child move up a track?

Yes. As a student moves up through school, they progress into the next track. Each track builds on the last, and the same transparent skill rating follows them throughout, so their long-term progress is always comparable.

What if my child is advanced for their grade?

Tracks are grade-based so that ranks are fair within a cohort. Strength shows up in the skill rating instead: because the rating rewards performance against calibrated difficulty, an advanced student earns a higher rating from harder papers without competing out of their grade.

Are the tracks aligned to a school curriculum?

Yes. Track content is mapped to recognized frameworks including CBSE, ICSE, and CSTA, so it complements what schools already teach and is easy for a coordinator or principal to justify.

Does my child need prior coding experience?

No. Each track starts from age-appropriate fundamentals and rewards reasoning over memorization, so beginners and experienced students alike face a fair, achievable challenge.
