I’m extremely grateful to your well-informed
sample respondents for voting us Ahmedabad’s #1
“proprietary preschool for the second consecutive
year. I am truly humbled by this recognition made
possible by the continuous efforts of Team Vedant to
deliver holistic all-round education with deep focus
on special needs education, values-based learning and
contemporary pedagogies. While all the EW parameters
of preschool education excellence are vital, we value
competence of faculty most because finally an education
institution is as strong as its faculty. Fostering community
engagement and expanding outreach programmes are at
the centre of our future plans” — Rutvi Vyas, founder,
Vedant International Preschool, Maninagar (600
students and 40 teachers)
