“Being a first-bench student is not about sitting in the front row — it’s a mindset. It is about how you think, how you learn, and how you grow by developing strong character traits.”
Dr. V.P. Suresh, Founder, Narayana Vidhyashram School
For many years, I ran a school with one goal:
to give children the best education possible.
And every year, during admissions, I met dozens of bright children—
children who were sincere, hardworking, polite, and full of potential.
They attended tuition, completed homework, and genuinely tried their best.
But when I sat with them… and asked them to read a simple paragraph…
they struggled. Some children read the passage, but they were not able to explain the meaning.
Parents would sit across from me with tears in their eyes and say:
“Sir, my child studies day and night.
Then why can’t he understand?
Why is he still behind?”
This did not happen in a single day.
Over many years, I watched talented children fail in entrance exams and competitive exams
—not because they lacked intelligence,
but because no one had built their mental foundation.
That realization shook me.
I understood a painful truth:
Schools teach content.
No one teaches children how to learn.
No one teaches them how to focus, how to think, how to retain, or how to read fluently.
So one day, I made the biggest decision of my life:
I will not run a traditional school anymore.
Let children study in any school their parents choose.
But I decided that I would take just two hours a day from those children…
and fix the root problem no school was fixing.
I would build a system that develops First-Bench Mindset.
A system that shapes a child’s mind first—
because once the mind is strong, academics automatically rise.
FBM is not just a program.
It is a movement to rebuild India’s learning foundation.
It is a promise that no sincere child should struggle because of a weak base.
And it is a commitment to parents that their child will not be left behind.
Panthi Academy–FBM exists for one mission:
To create children who are confident, capable, and ready to compete at a world level.

Education is much more than just memorizing facts and figures; it’s about developing critical thinking, creativity, and a love for learning that lasts a lifetime.
It’s important to remember that you can still develop these abilities outside of school through independent study, seeking out mentors or online resources, and participating in extracurricular activities that challenge you to think outside the box.”
But remember that unfortunately today you are surrounded by schools that only routinely teach you to memorize and appear the exams without reading and understanding the subjects.

Local Presence, Global Standards
Our mission flows directly from our vision:
“Local Presence. Global Standards. Learning Without Distraction.”
We are building a network of neighborhood learning spaces called PA-Points (Panthi Academy Centers) near every CBSE and Matriculation school across India.
These centers bring quality learning closer to home, eliminating unnecessary travel between school, home, and tuition centers.
Children save time, stay focused, and learn in a consistent, distraction-free environment.
Every PA-Point acts as a micro-center of excellence —
where focus, feedback, and foundational learning come together to build long-term success.
This mission ensures that no matter where a child lives — urban or rural, big city or small town — they can access world-class learning support within walking distance.
