Oakridge International School, Bachupally, proudly hosted TEDO 2.0: Thought Leaders in the Making, a pioneering platform where young minds took centre stage to inspire, innovate, and drive change. This year’s theme, Sustainability, emphasised the vital connection between our actions today and the world we create for tomorrow. Held on the 27th and 28th of March 2025, this two-day event fostered awareness around environmental, social, and economic responsibility.

Building on last year’s success, TEDO 2.0 expanded its reach, welcoming over 50 students from EY1 to Grade 1 and nearly 20 young visionaries from 8 preschools, marking the first time external schools participated. These budding thought leaders confidently presented their ideas, proving that age is no barrier to making an impact.

“TEDO is more than an event—it’s a movement that amplifies the voices of our youngest visionaries,” remarked Ms. Anuradha Varma, Principal at Oakridge Bachupally. “It’s inspiring to see our youngest learners engage with global issues, demonstrating creativity, confidence, and a commitment to a better future.”

Ms. Nandini Mathur, EY Head at OISB, said, “It’s remarkable to witness the intellectual curiosity and empathy displayed by our young learners. By engaging with global issues at such a tender age, they are not just learning but actively shaping the world they will inherit.”

The event showcased Oakridge Bachupally’s ongoing commitment to fostering global awareness and leadership from an early age. TEDO 2.0 reaffirmed the school’s mission to nurture future-ready citizens who think critically and act with purpose by providing a platform for young voices.
