Target Group: Children between the age of 2-4 years and their parents.
Challenges: Initially it was difficult to manage all the expectations of the parents, as for them child’s learning gets generally associated with the reading-writing skills that the child can pick up. There is shortage of fully trained teachers. At times it is difficult to convince parents about the importance of pre-school education. Development of a child friendly and safe environment is also not an easy task. However, with the chairperson, Sudha Gupta’s conviction, the school sailed through these challenges and has been awarded with many prestigious awards.
