This is the second year in a row that we are ranked
#1. It is timely acknowledgement and motivation to
“our teachers who collaborated to respond quickly to
the Covid-19 crisis. We started virtual online classes as
early as April 2020 — the first preschool in Kolkata to go
online. Moreover, we ensured that our online curriculum
was child-centric and included enjoyable activities such
as exercise and dance which are so important in early
years education. Because of our innovative curriculum,
I believe that our children have suffered minimal learn-
ing loss” — S a n c h a ri M u k h e rj i (right), centre head,
