Why TechPaila exists
Nepal’s government already funds technical streams in hundreds of secondary schools — computer engineering, civil, electrical, plant science, animal science, agriculture. They start from Grade 9 and they cost nothing. But the information about these schools sits in a government booklet, as a table in an annex, as a PDF. If you know the document number, you can find it. If you’re a 14-year-old in a village who wants to learn to code, you never will — and neither will your parents or your teacher.
Our founder only found his own school because someone happened to mention it. He got lucky. Studying there is a big part of why he’s doing a computer science bachelor’s now. Most students don’t get that luck, and the schools sit there while the kids who’d want them never hear the name.
TechPaila puts every one of those 537 schools on a map — so finding the right school stops depending on who you happen to know.
