The Little Elly Play school was established in the year 2004, when Global Learning System Private Limited, who are into the field of publishing Children’s Books for over 25 years and marketing the world’s Best Educational Aids, ventured into the preschool business in India and partnered with Salmiya playschool, developing a learning programme that was suitable to Indian learning needs. August 2005, saw the collaboration with Glen Tree UK for providing technical and curriculum inputs and support.

To have a larger presence in the pre-school space, and to provide a greater thrust in reaching out to the community, the founders formed a new company M/s Learning Edge India Private Limited, to take over the preschool business from M/s Global Learning System Private Limited.

Bringing Positive ChangeLittle Elly is a pioneering initiative of Learning Edge India Pvt Ltd who, in association with Glen Tree, UK (frontrunners in serving kid’s education needs since the last decade) follow the system of teaching kids in a relaxed, playful setup, where children learn without actually being aware of the teaching process.

From a single Preschool set-up in BTM Layout in 2008, the Little Elly Group of Institutions which comprise Franchisees and Training Centres, are spread all over the country, providing individualised and well researched learning methods to aid in the overall development of a child.

At Little Elly, our strong belief lies in the fact that the childhood is meant to be enjoyed and cherished. At the same time, incredible growth and learning takes place during this period, a crucial fact backed by numerous studies and well established by considerable research. Since the fir st five years of a child are the most formative and the vital mental and cognitive growth happens during this period, children have the capacity to imbibe and flourish a t an incredible pace. This well-rounded development is essential to every child, even though their uniqueness means that each of them have their own pace to learn important skills.

At Little Elly, our constant endeavour is to make your child’s initial formative years memorable, by acting as a support system that will shoulder the responsibility with parents in making their wards develop a genuine love for learning.
