The Session
Are students reading to find answers, or reading to think? The Curious Reader is a hands-on live workshop for Primary English teachers (Grades 1–5). It moves reading lessons beyond literal comprehension towards inference, interpretation and evidence-based reasoning. Participants explore questioning techniques, simple thinking routines, and ways to connect reading, discussion and writing, along with feedback that moves learning forward. NEP 2020-aligned. Counts toward annual CPD hours. Built by teachers, for fellow teachers.

About Staffroom Academy
Staffroom Academy is a practitioner-led initiative born from a simple realization: Indian education is undergoing its most exciting transformation in decades. A bold new vision is reshaping what classrooms look like, how students learn, and what it truly means to teach. But the people expected to deliver it — teachers — are being asked to transform without a roadmap.
We are a collective of experienced educators, curriculum leaders, and academic heads from some of India's leading K–12 institutions. Between us, we carry decades of classroom experience across CBSE, ICSE, and international boards. We've built curricula, mentored faculty, led schools — and we understand deeply how challenging it is to reimagine your teaching practice while standing in front of a classroom every single day.
That's exactly why Staffroom Academy exists. Not to lecture, but to walk alongside fellow teachers through this transition. Through workshops, expert panels, and hands-on training sessions, we create a space where educators can learn together, share what's working, ask what isn't, and build the confidence to move from rote-driven instruction to competency-based, experiential classrooms — one practical step at a time.
We are not consultants looking in from the outside. We are teachers standing shoulder to shoulder with teachers — because we believe the most promising chapter in Indian education is being written right now, and it will be written by the people who show up to the classroom every morning.
Unlearn textbooks and learn classrooms
The future of Indian education won't deliver itself — teachers will. We make sure they're ready.
