SP Robotic Works, India’s #1 online edutainment company

As we progress further into the COVID19 lockdown, children have been bearing the negative impact of being constrained inside the four walls of their houses for too long. 

They had to endure social isolation during the summer vacation, a period most awaited for the tots and now continuing through their school year.

As a leading player in the digital education segment, SP Robotic Works have an in-depth understanding of the aspirations and aptitude of children, especially the school going age. They are publishing their latest report; “Kids Under COVID”, a research study and survey done among 3600 parents and an equal number of children, between the age group of 7-17 years.

Of the many interesting insights, 78% of Indian parents are unwilling to send their wards to school immediately post lockdown, stood out in the current context.
