Physics Wallah, India’s top online education technology platform, has launched a new school initiative PW School Integrated Programme to provide Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) and National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) coaching to students in tier-3 and tier-4 cities in India. As a part of the initiative, the startup plans to collaborate with 39 schools in remote areas and set up the ‘Vidyapeeth School Center’.

According to Vice President Imran Rashid, the company will invest $10 million in this project. Of this, $5 million will be spent to set up school infrastructure. Another $5 million will be utilized to create top-quality content, pedagogy development and academic upgradation. The platform expects around 60 students from each partner school for this programme.

The initiative aims to minimise the need for separate coaching classes for students in remote areas while integrating JEE and NEET preparation into regular classroom instruction. The cost of setting up infrastructure in each school will range between Rs 8-10 lakh, officials said. Furthermore, the company will charge a ticket price of Rs 2,000 per student under the collaboration.

Last week, Physics Wallah forayed into National Eligibility cum Entrance Test—Postgraduate (NEET PG/NExT) preparation with the launch of MedEd, a “one-stop solution” for NEET PG/NExT preparation.

The programme is currently available for students in grades 11th-12th with plans to extend to grades 9th and 10th later. Classes will be offered live during school time and will provide coaching over the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) and JEE/NEET requirements. The main subjects in focus will be Physics, Chemistry, Maths and Biology. The programme will be rolled out across 34 districts in 10 states, including Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Bihar, Assam, Jharkhand, Maharashtra, Gujarat Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, and Haryana.

PW’s exemplary JEE/NEET results testify to its commitment to serving students with the best quality coaching at affordable prices.
