Chennai, September , 2026: TechnoSchool, a leading ICT and STEM education partner for schools, launched Global Aerosports, a pioneering initiative dedicated to transforming aerospace education through innovation and experiential learning. The initiative was launched by the Chief Guest, distinguished Indian space scientist Dr. Mylswamy Annadurai, Chairman, Curriculum Design Committee for School Education, Government of Tamil Nadu, in the presence of other dignitaries.
Global Aerosports aims to introduce school students to the fascinating world of aerospace through hands-on learning, practical exposure and technology-driven experiences on Aeromodelling, Rocketry, Drone Technology, Space Technology and Astronomy. The initiative seeks to go beyond conventional classroom learning by enabling students to explore aerospace concepts through experimentation, design, problem-solving and innovation.
Addressing the gathering at the launch, Distinguished Chief Guest Dr. Mylswamy Annadurai, Padma Shri awardee and popularly known as the ‘Moon Man of India, said: “I was fortunate in my younger days to be appreciated and encouraged by my elders for my work and learning. That experience has stayed with me and I continue to learn every day, and strive to be better than I was yesterday. Lifelong learning is the foundation of personal growth and national progress. Indian aerospace today stands at a level where the world recognises our capabilities. To move forward, we need skilled human capital and the right infrastructure, and these are increasingly coming together. This is creating tremendous opportunities for our youth. When I was young, opportunities to experience space and aerospace were limited; visits to ISRO and NOVAS opened my mind to possibilities beyond what I knew.
“Today, our youngsters have opportunities we could only dream of, and initiatives like this provide a launch pad for them to explore, experiment and innovate. We must prepare our young people to be lifelong learners, moving beyond rote learning towards analytical thinking, problem-solving and hands-on experience. STEM and emerging technologies such as AI must become part of this journey. At the same time, the experience of elders and the energy and ideas of youth must come together. India’s young generation has a tremendous future, not only within the country but on the global stage” he added.
In his concluding remarks, Dr. Mylswamy said: “Ultimately, recognition matters less than the impact our knowledge creates—how far it travels and how many lives it transforms. Science is not meant for an individual or a nation; it is meant for the progress of humanity. When knowledge, experience, technology and youthful imagination come together, we can build a better future for India and the world”.
Dr. M. R. K. Menon, Founder and Chief Mentor, Global Aero Sports, said, “When a student goes for counselling, they are often told what they should pursue. But today, with AI, drones, robotics, rocketry and aerospace opening up new possibilities, we need to give children exposure to these fields and let them discover what excites them. Let children choose what they want to learn, experiment with and explore. The jobs of tomorrow will require the skills of tomorrow, and once children find a dream, they must stay with it long enough to turn it into reality. The real difference is not just in what we teach, but in how we implement it. That is what TechnoSchool is doing”.
Dr. Menon appreciated TechnoSchool for bringing Dr. G. Madhavan Nair, Ex ISRO Chairman and Distinguished Space Scientist as Chief Advisor for its curriculum and for taking aerospace education to school children. “Aerospace, rocketry and robotics must reach rural schools in a much bigger way, because that is where we can identify talent early and nurture the future scientists of ISRO and the global space ecosystem. Having worked in this field for nearly 18 years, I have seen how empowering teachers can multiply this impact. Through the Aerospace Ambassador Programme, trained teachers take this knowledge to students, creating a sustainable model of learning” he added.
Speaking about the programme, he said, “Our weekend certificate programme is designed to complement, not disrupt, regular schooling, while a full-term programme is also being developed in collaboration with the government. Along with aerospace education, career assessment, counselling and SWOT-based assessment will help children understand their strengths and make informed choices about their future. These opportunities should not be limited to a few; they must reach every nook and corner of the country. If we truly want to make India a great nation, technology experts and educators must come together, identify talent, empower teachers and create pathways for continuous learning. Together, we can help children dream beyond the sky and build an aerospace ecosystem that positions India strongly on the global stage”.
Jeba Selvan, CEO & Founder, TechnoSchool said, “Jeba Selvan, CEO & Founder, TechnoSchool, said, “At TechnoSchool, we have always believed that education must go beyond business to inspire young minds and build a future together. Today marks another milestone in our journey as we take technology education into the exciting world of aerospace through Global Aerosports. We want children to look beyond what is happening around them—to look up, explore, experiment and dream beyond the sky.
“Aerospace brings together exciting fields such as rocketry, drones, aeroscience, satellite technology and astronomy, and we believe this curiosity should begin at the school level. Our endeavour is to move children from simply reading about science to experiencing, building and experimenting with it. From asking ‘What career can I choose?’ to ‘What can I create, discover, solve and contribute?’ We are deeply grateful to Dr. Mylswamy Annadurai for his remarkable contribution to India’s space programme and for inspiring generations of young minds. We look forward to partnering with visionary schools and educators to nurture the next generation of scientists, engineers, innovators and entrepreneurs in aerospace and space technology. With Global Aerosports, we want children not just to watch the future, but to participate in creating it.”
James Selvaraj, Operations Manager, TechnoSchool UAE, said, “Over the past 20 years, Techno School has remained committed to making quality ICT education accessible and affordable to every student, irrespective of their background or the school they come from. Our vision and mission have always been centred on building strong fundamentals and ensuring that learning is continuous and meaningful. Over the years, we have developed and refined a proven methodology built around four key pillars—Teaching, Learning, Verification and Assessment. This structured approach enables us to evaluate every stage of the learning journey, ensure that concepts are clearly understood and continuously reinforce knowledge. Importantly, our approach is not limited to students; we take teachers along on this journey, equipping them to effectively support and strengthen student learning”.
“With clearly defined SOPs and a consistent delivery framework, we ensure that our programmes are delivered in the right way and, more importantly, received and understood by children in the right way. This proven methodology, strengthened through two decades of experience, enables us to deliver sustainable, consistent and effective ICT education across diverse schools and learning environments” he added
