Accredited by the World STEM FederationWe write the STEAM and AI curriculum that sits inside the school week, not beside it. Since 2017, more than 100,000 students have finished a NASCA programme, and the World STEM Federation accredits the work.
A working session in one of our partner schools.
Quick answer
NASCA is a STEAM education partner accredited by the World STEM Federation. We work inside classrooms in seven countries where we have partner schools: India, the US, UAE, UK, Singapore, Saudi Arabia and Australia, and run live cohorts for schools in 30 markets across Asia, the Gulf, Africa, Europe, North America and Oceania. We write K-12 curriculum, train teachers, run applied AI cohorts, and help universities build their own capability, from Pre-K to PhD.
We were started by teachers and parents. Today around 12,000 learners study with us, and a new AI Institute cohort opens on the first Monday of every month.
A day at NASCA
Six classroom blocks. One belief. Children should build with AI, not just consume it.
The same AI engine our curriculum team uses internally. Standards-aligned, grade-tuned, and tested with 100+ partner schools. Free, no signup.
Quick prompts
The 16 sub-streams
Sixteen technology sub-streams stacked into one living shelf. Glide your cursor down. Each one expands to show what children build inside.
Foundations Grade 3–5 · Formal stream Grade 6–12: The defining technical literacy of this generation.
Grade 4–12: Collect it, clean it, question it, and only then draw the graph.
Grade 1–12: Blocks to Python to real software, written, broken and fixed by the student.
Grade 6–12: A working app on a real phone, used by real people in the school.
Grade 1–12: Mechanical design, electronics, embedded code and creative problem-solving on one workbench.
Grade 3–12: Reading the world accurately, then acting on it precisely.
Grade 6–12: The maths a robot actually needs, taught where it is used.
Grade 1–12: From a single LED to multi-sensor circuits designed, wired and debugged by children.
Grade 6–12: Sensors on the wall, data in the cloud, dashboards the whole school reads.
Grade 1–12: The foundational discipline that precedes and informs every other STEAM stream.
Grade 1–12: The five-stage human-centred process, with a 3D printing strand from Grade 5.
Grade 1–5 entry point, continuing to Grade 12: science practised with the world outside the window.
Grade 1–12: Building with technology, not merely using it, from first webpage to deployed app.
Grade 7–12: From digital safety and cryptography to penetration testing, CTF and professional-format reporting.
Grade 10–12: From cryptographic hashing to Solidity contracts on Ethereum testnets.
Grade 11–12: First-principles superposition and entanglement, then real circuits on IBM hardware.
Our promise
We will never bore a child in the name of rigour. We will never replace a teacher with a chatbot. And we will never publish a curriculum we wouldn't put our own children through.

Sixty seconds
No brochure language. One class, one period, from the question on the board to the thing on the table at the end. If it looks noisier than a normal lesson, that is because it is.

From the journal
In classrooms from Leeds to Bristol, British schools are replacing panic over algorithmic homework with a sturdier tradition: using wet labs, empirical grit, and local compute to interrogate synthetic reasoning.
How parents can move past screen-time anxiety to build scientific agency, pairing digital intelligence with physical curiosity at home.
In Abu Dhabi and Dubai, school engineering labs are moving past pre-packaged kits to tackle real environmental data, turning Gulf classrooms into vibrant hubs of authentic design.
We consider how artificial intelligence, far from replacing the human educator, is instead rekindling the essential joy of teaching across India's vibrant classrooms. This is not about automation, but elevation.
Teacher professional development in India has moved from passive auditorium seminars to ambient micro-coaching and diagnostic inquiry, placing pedagogical craft and multilingual design at the heart of the classroom.
Schools are abandoning conversational chatbots. In their place, classrooms across the world are deploying local edge models, vision sensors, and physical test rigs that turn artificial intelligence into a tactile laboratory tool.
From an Al Ain classroom to the date groves of Liwa, NASCA alumnus Tariq Al-Nuaimi is saving UAE palms with edge-AI acoustic sensors engineered for extreme desert heat.
In Pune and Bengaluru, Indian schools are running vernacular edge AI on low-cost devices, reviving physical craftsmanship and oral defense in a quiet revolution for STEAM education.
