    Birla Open Minds expands its reach, schooling east India with three new campuses

    MUMBAI: A chalkboard revolution is underway in the east. Birla Open Minds has rolled out three spanking new campuses across Jharkhand, West Bengal, and Bihar, bringing its vision of education with a conscience to the doorsteps of thousands more students.

    The latest openings-located in Koderma, Singur, and Punpun-add heft to the brand’s footprint and bolster its mission of making learning a liberating experience, not just a mandated task. With this launch, Birla Open Minds is scripting a new chapter in accessible, values-driven schooling in India.

    The campuses span preschool to grade 12 and operate on an educational model rooted in academic rigour, empathy, and experiential learning. Classrooms are digitised, science and maths labs are fitted for experimentation, libraries are wired for research, and arts and athletics are given a front-row seat.

    “Our mission is to build transformative learning ecosystems that ignite curiosity, nurture character, and empower students to question, imagine, and lead with purpose,” said Birla Open Minds MD Nirvaan Birla. “Each new campus brings us closer to a future where quality education is a powerful, accessible reality for every child – not a privilege, but a promise.”

    Director & COO Yatharth Gautam added, “As we extend our footprint into Koderma, Singur, and Punpun, our priority remains clear – to provide accessible, forward-thinking education that builds resilience, empathy, and innovation in every learner.”

    The new campuses, built to be more than just schools, include amphitheatres, arts hubs, and sports zones, designed to encourage balance between book-smarts and life-skills. These spaces aim to create future-ready learners with a global mindset and a rooted moral compass.

    This move marks a significant stride in the institution’s broader goal: reimagining Indian education as inclusive, intuitive, and deeply impactful-one inspired learner at a time.

    Birla Open Minds makes a smart move with hands-on STEM spark in schools

    MUMBAI: Plug in and play on! Birla Open Minds is rebooting the way students learn, swapping rote memorisation for robotics and chalkboards for circuits. In a bid to prepare students for the tech-first world, the education group has joined hands with Centrado Tech Solutions to roll out a structured, future-focused STEM programme across its schools.

    The initiative will bring hands-on learning in Artificial Intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), and Robotics into classrooms turning students into creators, not just consumers of technology. Aligned with the National Education Policy (NEP), the curriculum is designed for all grades and will use co-branded STEM kits and interactive digital platforms to make science and technology more accessible and far more fun.

    Birla Open Minds managing director Nirvaan Birla said, “At Birla Open Minds, we are committed to shaping the leaders of tomorrow by providing an education that keeps pace with the evolving world. This collaboration with Centrado is a testament to our vision of fostering innovation and excellence in learning. By integrating hands-on STEM education into our curriculum, we are ensuring that our students don’t just keep up with technological advancements but become the pioneers of the future.”

    Centrado, known for its immersive STEAM-based learning ecosystem, will supply more than just tech. The programme includes teacher training, onboarding support, video-led learning, and real-time assessments, ensuring seamless integration and sustained impact.

    Centrado Tech Solutions Pvt. Ltd founder & managing director Anuradha added, “Centrado is proud to collaborate with Birla Open Minds in shaping the future of education through STEM. Our goal is to spark curiosity and enhance problem-solving abilities among students. By integrating AI, IoT, and Robotics, we are enabling the next generation to think critically and embrace technological advancements with confidence.”

    What sets the programme apart is its dual model of learning. Students will dive into collaborative, project-based learning in school, while also exploring real-world concepts independently at home. The idea is to give them both structure and freedom, a potent mix for sparking innovation.

    In a world where algorithms are shaping everything from playlists to policies, this collaboration aims to shape the next generation of problem-solvers who can code, construct, and creatively navigate complexity. For the students of Birla Open Minds, STEM is no longer just an acronym, it’s a way of thinking.
