This will apply to the examinations, which will be held by 2021. Students in the age group of 17 to 19 years will be studying ISKCON movement in their high school as a part of their curriculum, a statement by ISKCON said.

Radhanath Swami of ISKCON said, ”This is truly an achievement and a step ahead to impart the essence of Hinduism globally. It’s imperative for children to connect to this vast ancient knowledge that has been into existence ever since the existence of human being. In today’s competitive era which is full of stress resulting many youngsters getting into depression, if our children are enlightened  with  the  real knowledge of life they will know how to combat stress
easily. With this, they will better understand the real purpose of this human life and how they should conduct themselves.

This will take them long way in life as Hinduism is just not religion but beyond that. It’s the way of living , purposeful living. Cambridge is one of the strongest pillars of modern education system and for them to include ISKCON in their syllabus is a huge recognition of our spiritual practices.”
