Can India be the new China or in fact surpass it? India currently has 5 British branded K-12 schools (opened or announced), while China has 59. Although the overall education market in China is significantly larger due to higher average fee levels, India is rapidly increasing its presence in this sector. The gap seems to be massive but the growth we are seeing in India and the slowdown in China suggests that this will be closely contested. Our recently concluded Empowering Education event which we hosted in collaboration with Khaitan & Co and supported by Department for Business and Trade and ARISE, further strengthened our belief in the India growth story. This event highlighted the potential of India’s K-12 education landscape, showcasing increasing demand for quality schooling and the willingness of international institutions to invest in the region. As India continues to enhance its educational infrastructure and foster collaborations with foreign schools, it is well-positioned to make significant strides in this arena. This growth indicates a promising shift in the K-12 education landscape, positioning India as a potential leader in this domain. #EmpoweringEducation #Novistra #KhaitanCo #UK #India #Education
