Edkasa, Pakistan’s fastest-growing ed-tech platform, is a dream coming to fruition. Not long ago, two curious Pakistanis searched and found answers that would help the country’s education system. The solution was there, staring quietly at them, but it needed
enthusiastic perseverance. The guard could not go down. The duo, drawn into an alliance already, now committed to an even greater partnership that would combine their passion to help Pakistan’s future. As their converged paths continued, companions followed.
This zest and dedication gave birth to Edkasa that now strives each day to solve arguably Pakistan’s biggest problem – access to quality education. As individuals, the goal is to help young minds find answers. As a company, the vision is bring the enthusiasm together.
Why is it important:
At an early age, boundaries are set, and limitations handed out. Education disparity is evident, and becomes wider. As the real world begins, some are tied down with having received sub-par education, while several are left behind. A few, privileged in the context, are left to compete in a world that gives very few chances.
The mission, at Edkasa, is to believe in Pakistan – give back a chance to young minds clear the very first real hurdle in life. The hurt is real, and the company’s founders have seen it, felt it, and want to work to improve it.
The problem:
More than 23 million secondary education-aged students in Pakistan are out of school. The Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education (BISE) has its hands full. Nearly half of those who do attend fail their exams. Past and guess papers exist, but are not
substitutes. Teachers are overworked, underpaid, and overwhelmed. Some quit, and a few remain unmotivated. Cash-strapped official quarters are burdened with firefighting remedies. Students find classes unstimulating and refuse indulgence. The system needs help.
The solution:
Edkasa has stepped in to make learning more accessible without burdening the teachers. Its online classes reach thousands of students, and have recorded 1.3 million hours of viewing time. Teachers are hired for their knowledge and passion, and their student interactions reflect the improvement.
By leveraging mobile internet availability, Edkasa is helping students pass their Matric examinations. The subjects include Physics, Chemistry, English, and Math, to help students pass their Matric examinations.
