We are honoured to receive this accolade from
EducationWorld. I attribute our #1 ranking to the
“consistent, collaborative efforts of all our stakehold-
ers including teachers, parents, children, ancillary staff
and management. The factors behind our #1 ranking are
our iCan curriculum which uses evidence-based, deeply-
researched teaching-learning strategies; well-trained
teachers with almost two decades of experience; excel-
lent teacher-pupil ratio of 1:6; active parental involve-
ment; and a safe, stimulating learning environment. FYI
we are one of few preschools in the city to have been
awarded a safety rating of 99.56 percent by TUV India.
Therefore, it’s unsurprising — but gratifying — to learn
that your survey respondents have rated us highly on the
parameters of curriculum and pedagogy, teacher com-
petence, safety and hygiene, parental involvement and
individual attention to students” — Archana Mantri,
Principal, Kangaroo Kids International Pre-
School, New Alipore (60 children and 10 teachers)
