TikTok has entered into a partnership with the 10 Minute School, one of the leading ed-tech platforms in Bangladesh, to launch the transformative #ExamReady digital learning programme.
This initiative aims to address the pressing educational challenges faced by students in grades 8 to 10, including those preparing for the Secondary School Certificate (SSC) examinations, by making online education and distance learning more accessible.
Fueled by TikTok’s commitment, the #ExamReady program represents a significant leap toward providing affordable, comprehensive, and readily available education to millions of Bangladeshi students.
Alongside the #ExamReady program, TikTok and 10 Minute School are launching the #ExamReady Scholarship Program. This program’s objective is to offer online study grants to 15,000 deserving students across Bangladesh, encompassing high school students in grades 8 to 10, and SSC candidates, constituting roughly 10-12 million students. These scholarships will help remove financial barriers, ensuring that these students are well-prepared for success in their exams.
Helena Lersch, TikTok’s Vice President of Public Policy for Emerging Markets and Global Head of Corporate Social Responsibility, expressed her excitement about this partnership, saying, “Our collaboration with 10 Minute School promises to bring digital access to quality education within reach of everyone. We eagerly anticipate working together to promote literacy nationwide and enable Bangladeshi students to utilize our platform to enhance their knowledge and skills.”
