Tell us more about yourself and your staff

I have been working in this school for 6 years. We are a team of six teachers as of today. The preschool was established in 2006. We celebrated our 10 year anniversary in 2016. The school is managed by Rao Trust.

What is your philosophy towards children?

We believe in explaining to every child with actions and colours. We make sure that every child is involved in various activities and performs to his/her fullest. We believe that learning should be through experiences. We genuinely want children at our school to gain more experience through various activities that help them in life.

What your key insights as an educator?

My advice to young teachers would be to work hard, truthfully and sincerely. Teachers must explain to the children the concepts of discipline and good behaviour.

What do parents love about your school?

Parents love the teaching, the knowledge and the various activities that the children are engaged in at our school. We believe in allowing the children to explore different activities. This helps children in well rounded development.

What are your tips for parents who are applying to your school?
