Explorique is the EdTech division of FoundersValley — a Hyderabad-based organisation with over 8+ years of deep experience in education, entrepreneurship facilitation, and human development. What began as a grassroots effort to build entrepreneurial thinking among young people has grown into a structured school-facing initiative with a clear mission: to give every Indian school, regardless of its size or city, access to practical programmes that improve how it grows, how it communicates, how it develops students, and how it measures learning. Explorique is not a technology platform with an account manager. It is a working partnership, built school by school, with a small and committed team that moves fast and keeps things real.
Indian schools today face a set of challenges that did not exist a decade ago. Admissions have become competitive in ways that word-of-mouth alone can no longer address. Parents are more informed, more discerning, and more likely to compare schools online before they ever visit a campus. At the same time, the National Education Policy 2020 is pushing schools toward competency-based learning, experiential pedagogy, and holistic student development — a significant shift from the rote-learning model that most school systems were built around. These are not problems that a new app or a one-day workshop can solve. They require a sustained, thoughtful approach. That is what Explorique is designed to provide.
Our product portfolio is built around four divisions, each addressing one critical dimension of school life. The Admissions division helps schools capture every incoming enquiry, nurture undecided families, and run a structured, professional admission process that reflects the quality of the school itself. The Marketing division helps schools find the words to describe what they genuinely stand for, build a visible year-round presence, and activate their most powerful channel — the parents who are already inside the gates. Together, these two divisions address the growth side of running a school: how families find you, what they see when they do, and whether they choose you.
The Entrepreneurship division brings FoundersValley’s facilitation philosophy directly into the school — through structured classroom programmes, student innovation clubs, and immersive bootcamps that give students the experience of building something real from an idea. These are not career guidance sessions or motivational talks. They are carefully designed learning experiences that develop observation, creative thinking, problem-solving, communication, and resilience at an age when those capacities are most formative. The Assessment division completes the picture by giving teachers practical, curriculum-aligned tools that make learning visible — worksheets that reveal where students genuinely are, build higher-order thinking, and give every student a growing record of the skills they are developing over time.
Explorique currently works with 55 schools across India. We are a startup, and we say that not as a disclaimer but as a statement of intent. It means we are close to the work, responsive to what schools actually need, and not yet carrying the weight of a large organisation that has forgotten what it is like to sit across the table from a principal who is trying to do too many things with too few people. Every product in this portfolio has been shaped by real school conversations. The pages that follow describe each division and its products in plain language — what they are, what they do, and what a school can expect when it chooses to work with us.
