Nationwide: Quality Education Becomes More Accessible
JAMMU: Physics Wallah (PW), India’s leading multinational edtech company, committed to democratizing affordable, high-quality education across Bharat, has announced the launch of over 77 new offline tech-enabled learning centers nationwide in Academic Year 25-26.
These new centres will be spread across the states of Tamil Nadu, Gujarat, Jammu & Kashmir, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra, amongst others. This expansion effectively doubles PW’s offline footprint to 203 centres across 141 cities, building on its existing 126 Vidyapeeth and Pathshala centres.
Through this strategic growth, PW aims to significantly enhance access to quality education, with a particular focus on students in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, ensuring it reaches the most underserved areas across the country.
In Academic Year 24-25, over 200,000 students enrolled in PW’s Vidyapeeth and Pathshala centres, reflecting the growing trust in PW’s mission to democratize education across India. PW aims to educate another 250,000 students in the coming academic year and remains dedicated to providing the guidance and resources necessary for every learner to thrive, ensuring that education becomes a tool for empowerment and equal opportunity for all. Presently, there is one student of PW in almost every IIT and AIIMS across the nation.
PW’s offline segment is divided into two models – Vidyapeeth (VP) and Pathshala (PS). Vidyapeeths are tech-enabled offline centres where students attend in-person classes led by experienced teachers.
The Pathshala model offers a more innovative approach with its unique two-teacher system. In Pathshala centres, students attend physical classes taught by teachers who are virtually present, while a second teacher is physically available in the classroom to address doubts and queries. This model allows students to benefit from the expertise of renowned teachers, regardless of their geographical location. By integrating both models, PW effectively combines digital and physical learning environments, consistently delivering high quality education to every corner of the country.
Ankit Gupta, CEO Offline, Physics Wallah (PW) said, “At PW, we always prioritise the needs and wellbeing of the student. By opening more centres, we want to make sure that students don’t have to travel long distances to access quality education, which eases their financial burden. Another key aspect that we want to solve is the mental and emotional stress that students face when they have to shift to another city or state to pursue education, thereby creating more educational hubs across the country.”
Physics Wallah (PW), recently held its third edition of the National Scholarship Common Admission Test (NSAT) 2024 which was held across both online and offline options, making quality education accessible to all deserving students. A scholarship fund of INR 250 crores was set aside for students who cleared the exam, making it the biggest scholarship test. This initiative aims to help students aspiring to excel in NEET-UG and IIT-JEE exams by providing education and expert guidance, regardless of their financial situation.
