It is a great honour and privilege to be ranked
Bhopal’s #1 preschool by EducationWorld. Credit
“for this accolade should accrue not only to the
management and staff of DPS Kidszone, but to all our
students and parents as well, whose constant support
and cooperation has inspired us to give our best. I’m
delighted with our top scores under several parameters,
especially curriculum and pedagogy and teacher
competence which is proof that we are providing a strong
foundation for Indian youth. Planning consciously for
the future is the best strategy for remaining grounded in
the present. Therefore, our core team is ideating newer
initiatives for post-Covid children. Times have changed
and early childhood education needs to evolve” — Mukta
Sharma, vice principal, DPS Kidszone, (DPS Bhopal),
Neelbad, Bhopal (232 students and 29 teachers)
