All of us are experiencing a sense of satisfaction,
pride and achievement on being ranked Vadodara’s
“#1 preschool. This is the outcome of the efforts of our
committed teachers and supportive parents — the most
important partners in ensuring children’s optimal devel-
opment. It’s especially satisfying that our top scores are
on the parameters of competence of teachers and curricu-
lum and pedagogy, because we have nurtured excellent
teachers who think out-of-the-box, continuously upgrade
the curriculum and use innovative and effective pedago-
gies. Moreover, all children are encouraged to participate
in a wide range of sports, cultural, and life skills activities
and parenting sessions are regularly conducted to ensure
parents active involvement in their children’s learning
journey” — Geeta Sikdar, Director, Neev — The Prep
School (900 students and 70 teachers)
