Education advisory, Human Centred Design and teacher development for boards, agencies and school systems across India
- Strategic advisory
- Human Centred Design
- Teacher development at scale
Discovery, ideation and planning — done with your people.
A disciplined, evidence-led way of working
Grounded in the lived reality of school communities — and built to scale
NEP 2020 sets ambitious goals for holistic, competency-based, learner-centred education. The challenge for every Board and agency is not whether to pursue these goals, but how — in ways that are grounded in the lived reality of school communities, that carry teachers, principals, students, parents and partners with them, and that scale.
World Mosaic brings a disciplined, evidence-led Human Centred Design way of working — and deliberately builds enduring HCD capability inside your organisation.
Three ways we serve boards and systems
Strategic advisory
From policy intent to a fundable, sequenced program of work — strategy, prioritisation and ‘no surprises’ governance with leadership.
Human Centred Design
Discovery, prioritisation, ideation and pilot — embedded joint teams that co-create with the communities who will own the outcome.
Teacher development at scale
Buddy, a personal teacher coach aligned to NPST, plus HCD-embedded professional development — growth through real work, not one-off workshops.
The HCD cycle: a joint way of working
Not an external review delivered from a distance — a colleague embedded in a joint team with your people, moving from listening to an approved pilot in six months.
An initial 3+3 month engagement
- 1
Months 1-2 · Discovery
Fieldwork and listening across pilot communities; a shared, evidence-based picture of capacity and opportunity — your team trained in HCD by doing it.
- 2
Month 3 · Prioritisation
A Discovery Report with a prioritised, stakeholder-endorsed opportunity set. Review gate: leadership confirms the focus.
- 3
Months 4-5 · Ideation and co-creation
Storyboards, workflows and prototypes co-created with the people who will own them.
- 4
Month 6 · Pilot readiness and handover
An approved Pilot Plan — work streams, roles, budgets, risk register — plus embedded HCD capability that outlasts the engagement.
A key outcome: capacity that outlasts the project
Every workshop, sprint and playback session doubles as hands-on professional development for your team, teachers and partners — so the frameworks, routines and methods established here can be applied to future initiatives, not just this one.
From NEP 2020 intent to practice at scale
The National Education Policy sets the direction. The hard work is conversion: building the capability inside your organisation to turn policy intention into actual classroom practice, at scale. That capability — not another report — is what our engagements deliver.
HCD routines
discovery, co-creation and playback methods your teams run themselves
Prioritisation frameworks
transparent choices, endorsed by stakeholders, aligned to NEP goals
Pilot governance
‘no surprises’ review gates, risk registers and steering routines
Teacher development
NPST-aligned growth through real work, carried by your own leaders
Conversion, not consultation
Discovery, ideation and planning are done with your people, on your priorities — so when the engagement ends, the method stays. Your Board or agency leads NEP-era reform from within, initiative after initiative.
Educational change depends on what teachers do and think — it’s as simple and as complex as that.
— Michael Fullan, The New Meaning of Educational Change. That is why our advisory always builds teacher and team capacity, never just reports.Led in-country by an international expert
