"Hope below comments are not off-topic". Am in the process of rolling-out Linux Education @ Schools in Maharashtra (Project named as "Linux@School) in Maharashtra and in the process of starting at Milind Vidyala, R.A Colony Road, Powai, Mumbai. We will be setting-up Linux Lab (planning to use Debian Live) by this week and from next week onwards, formal Linux training will be started. Currently am planning to following Kerala IT@ School syllabus with some additions, more practical oriented trainings using Open Hardware’s such as RPi, Arduino, Sensors, Electronics Circuit designing etc. And we are in the process of applying for setting up of Atal Tinkering Laboratories, under Government of India's NITI Aayog, Atal Innovation Mission. With reference to the guidelines, it seems to have great potential, very much similar to our Linux@School plans.
