Reimagining what schools can be for every teenager

We are a team of educators, dreamers, and doers — committed to ensuring that young people from underserved schools or schools in underserved communities or geographies have the same opportunities as anyone else to lead, learn, and succeed.

Who are we and our culture

At Claylab, we are not just teachers or facilitators — we are co-travellers with our students.

We believe in ECO

Empathy with Rigor: Caring deeply for our students while holding high expectations.

Collaboration & Trust: Working as a team that learns from each other, just as our students do.

Ownership & Reflection: Modeling the same responsibility and self-learning we want our students to develop.

We see ourselves as sparks — igniting curiosity, agency, and ambition in every teenager we meet.

Who We Are

Where we work

India Map

We currently partner with schools in Maharashtra (Mumbai, Pune) and Uttarakhand (Udham Singh nagar district, Nainital and Champawat ), Delhi and Haryana (Sonepat) Each partnership is a step towards our vision of schools becoming hubs of life-readiness and community transformation.


We partner with those Affordable Private Schools who really believe in the dream of quality education for every child, irrespective of their social or financial background.

Our Story

Claylab was started, in July 2020, by 3 Teach For India Fellows - Vivek, Brototy, and Purva who themselves had just taught Grade 10 students from municipality schools in Mumbai.

With a mission to handhold their students till they get decent employment, Claylab focussed on holistic education of students. As it all happened in the middle of the pandemic, most of our programs were started as online spaces and with the time, we narrowed down on 2 flagship initiatives — the Mentorship Program and the School of Entrepreneurship. Together, these have supported thousands of students to build social capital, leadership skills, and entrepreneurial mindsets.

Today, Claylab is moving closer to its larger dream: transforming entire schools into spaces of future-readiness.

Our strength lies in our people — a diverse team of educators, mentors, and leaders who bring passion and purpose to every classroom.
