Last year when we were ranked #2, we started work to
improve under all the EW survey parameters. There-
“fore we are thrilled that our hard work, dedication, and
commitment to early childhood education excellence has
paid off. Now our well-designed and comprehensive cur-
riculum focuses on development of children’s cognitive,
social, emotional, mathematical, and motor skills, and
is delivered by well-trained teachers through play-based
pedagogies that encourage creativity, problem-solving, and
critical thinking skills. Therefore it’s especially gratifying
that Podar Jumbo Kids, Wakad is top-ranked on the pa-
rameters of faculty competence, curriculum and pedagogy
and especially individual attention to students. We thank
our parents community for reposing their trust in us.” —
