Anchored in NEP 2020 and Viksit Bharat 2047 Vision
Rooted in the vision of National Education Policy 2020 and aligned with the national goal of Viksit Bharat 2047, the AI-powered expansion of TheTeacherApp represents a shift from digital access to meaningful digital engagement for educators.
While TheTeacherApp has long supported teachers through structured training and curated learning resources, its new AI-enabled version embeds an assistive layer into everyday classroom workflows, delivering real-time, classroom-aligned support and seamless access to relevant content across all grades and subjects.
Dharmendra Pradhan, Minister of Education of India, said: “The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 has given us a clear roadmap to transform education, and our focus remains on supporting teachers every step of the way.
Teachers need quality resources that meet the diverse needs of every learner at every grade level, and today AI is no longer a luxury – it is a necessity. This initiative marks a transformative step in leveraging technology to empower our educators. Having been part of TheTeacherApp’s launch in 2024, it is inspiring to witness this next step supporting the integration of AI into the classrooms across India.”
Expanding TheTeacherApp’s Impact Nationwide
Since its launch in 2024, TheTeacherApp has engaged over 2 lakh educators with hundreds of hours of high-quality content and professional learning experiences.
With the integration of 45+ AI tools in collaboration with CK-12, TheTeacherApp further expands the teacher’s digital toolkit, helping educators reduce preparation time and focus more on student engagement.

In just 15 months since its launch in 2024, TheTeacherApp has engaged over 2 lakh + educators with hundreds of hours of quality content and learning experiences, reflecting a strong demand among teachers for continuous growth.
Today, with our collaboration with CK-12, we are expanding the teacher’s toolkit by embedding intelligent classroom resources so that educators can spend less time on preparation and more on inspiring young minds. At a time when India is embracing Viksit Bharat@2047, this initiative reflects how thoughtfully integrated AI can strengthen teachers’ ability to reach every learner and support the country’s long-term goal of equitable, future-ready education.”
AI-Enabled TheTeacherApp Strengthens Teacher Training
Highlighting the growing importance of AI in teacher training, Neeru Khosla, Co-Founder and Executive Director of CK-12, said: “AI in education is no longer optional. Teachers today need adaptive, intelligent support tools that truly understand classroom realities. This partnership allows us to combine TheTeacherApp’s scale with CK-12’s technology leadership to deliver meaningful, future-ready support for every teacher.”

The platform now offers 2,500+ hours of training modules, including Foundational Literacy and Numeracy (FLN), digital literacy modules, child safety content, teaching resources, and a collaborative Teachers’ Lounge.
