A blended curriculum of CISCE and CAIE is offered till grade 7 after which students choose examination boards of their choice. Grade 8 is a transitional year that helps students build board-specific skills. For the middle school, the program is focused on an experiential, enquiry-based approach where the guidelines are provided by the ICSE & IGCSE Curriculum.
Secondary and senior secondary school students are educated in tune with the syllabus for ICSE, IGCSE, ISC and A/AS level board examinations.
The curriculum of the school fosters new ways of thinking, considering and developing ideas. The curriculum is highly experiential, contextual, activity-oriented, and based on multidisciplinary teaching approaches.

The Inventure Academy Admission Process is simple and transparent. It works on the belief that a personal interaction between parents/authorized guardians, the prospective student and the school’s authorized representatives is of far greater value than any conventional admission test. The process is aimed at giving the faculty an insight into the type of education approach and environment parents believe would be appropriate for their child to maximize his/her potential, while giving a glimpse of the child’s strengths, learning needs and potential. It also provides the parents/authorized guardians a first-hand opportunity to obtain an understanding of how students and faculty engage with each other at the academy, their overall offering, curricula and educational approach.
The admission process begins in September of the previous calendar year. Admissions are granted on a first come first served basis for seats that are available.
Admission enquiries may be made by filling the enquiry form or directly contacting the admission centre. Once the school receives the inquiry, a member of the school’s community relations management (CRM) team will call/email the parents to take their enquiry forward. Parents and students based in Bangalore may visit the school by an appointment for a tour of the spacious, green, child friendly, safe campus, and an interaction with the CRM team.
Inventure Academy Yeshwanthpur (YPR), established two years ago, has introduced project-based and theme-based learning, a STEAM program from Kindergarten to Grade 8, inquiry journals, and academic support through initiatives such as Prayaas. The school will launch Grade 9 IGCSE in 2025–26 and has begun preparing students for Olympiads and academic competitions.
Students have participated in inter-school events including M.I.X. 2024 (runner-up), Arohan (2 gold, 3 silver, 3 bronze medals), and Inicio Imprints 2024 (first and second in slam poetry, second in entrepreneurial challenge, and third in digital comic). They have also engaged in creative programs such as Readers’ Theatre, publishing events, and school musicals. YPR conducted its first Student Council elections and participated in the Changemaker Challenge, receiving a commendation for a solar-powered lighting project.
In sports, the school’s football teams were runners-up at Vibgyor and Chaman Bharatiya tournaments and reached the semifinals of the Inventure Sports Fest 2024. Individual students received awards for Best Player, Best Defender, and Best Goalkeeper at multiple tournaments, with one student selected to represent the Real Madrid Football Foundation in an all-India event. The school also hosted over 300 participants at its Sports Fest and reports 87% participation in its after-school coaching programs.
YPR has implemented initiatives to support wellbeing and inclusion, including a Zen Garden, a Learning Lab, socio-emotional learning programs, and outreach with Siddanahosahalli Government School. Events such as Grandparents’ Day, Celestial Wonders, and Celebrations of Learning have also been conducted with parent participation.
Inventure Academy is a day school and hence does not offer hostel facilities.
