Knowledge Capsules  /  For Kendriya Vidyalayas

AI literacy for every Kendriya Vidyalaya child.

AI becomes compulsory from Class 3 in the 2026-27 session. Knowledge Capsules already teaches it, story-led, from age six. We bring to Kendriya Vidyalayas the same programme running in nearly 150 schools across India. Not how to cheat with AI, how to think with it.

Why now

It arrived before the syllabus did.

AI turned up in children's lives well ahead of any curriculum. They are already using it for homework, already seeing it in what they watch, and already being told contradictory things by adults still working it out. From the 2026-27 session AI becomes compulsory from Class 3. Kendriya Vidyalayas can lead this, not react to it.

Every child, not just some

AI literacy is becoming the new divide. A Kendriya Vidyalaya child should have it as surely as a private-school child. That equity is the whole point of teaching it here.

One network, one decision

The Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan reaches over a thousand schools under one roof. A single decision can put real AI literacy in front of lakhs of children at once.

Aligned with the national push

Story-led, ethical, and built for the classroom, in step with NEP 2020 and India's push to make its children makers of AI, not only users of it.

What we teach first

Human intelligence is greater than artificial intelligence.

Before a single prompt, we teach one idea, and we want a child never to forget it. AI is your co-pilot, not your pilot. You are the star, AI is your co-star. You get the work done from AI, AI does not do the work for you.

The first idea

Human intelligence is greater than artificial intelligence. A child who holds on to that will use AI as a tool for their own thinking, never as a replacement for it.

The COSTAR framework

Context, Objective, Style, Tone, Audience, Response. The same structure professionals use to get the best out of AI, taught to children in plain terms. In a world where knowing how to ask is the new literacy, we catch them young.

Ethical, and a maker

This is not a shortcut. We never ask a child to write an essay through AI. We teach a child to ask a better question, and to turn from a passive user of technology into a maker of it.

Common questions

Common questions.

What Kendriya Vidyalayas ask about the AI literacy programme.

What is Knowledge Capsules' AI literacy programme?

Story-led AI classes for children, from age six. Before a single prompt we teach one idea, that human intelligence is greater than artificial intelligence, then the COSTAR framework professionals use, and how to use AI ethically as a maker, not a passive user.

Why does this suit Kendriya Vidyalayas?

AI becomes compulsory from Class 3 in the 2026-27 session. As a national network under one central body, the Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan can lead on this rather than react to it, and give every child real AI literacy, not just children in private schools.

Do children need devices or a coding background?

No. We teach thinking before typing. It begins with one idea and a way of asking better questions, and grows from there to writing their own stories and building simple things. It works in an ordinary classroom.

Is this teaching children to cheat with AI?

No, the opposite. We teach that AI is a co-pilot, not a pilot. It is not a shortcut and we never ask a child to write an essay through AI. We teach a child to ask a better question and to stay the author of their own work.

How does a Kendriya Vidyalaya start?
