Thank you for this encouraging acknowledgement
of our initiatives to integrate technology with early
“childhood education excellence. The Covid pandemic
forced a paradigm shift during which we have learned
to become contact-less and yet become more connected.
This is where technology has played a major role. Our
innovative Home Buddy online application with rich
audio-visual content and playful activities was specially
designed to replace in-class schooling. Currently, we are
using artificial intelligence to manage youngest children’s
behavioural and overall development. We are trying hard
to build a sustainable future where every parent and
child can access the benefits and opportunities created
by technology” ― Pradnya Surve (centre), principal,
EuroKids, Dhayari, Pune (100 students, ten teachers)
We are delighted to be ranked #1 in the category
of health, nutrition, and safety because we firmly
“believe an environment that nurtures the physical
safety, social and emotional well-being of children,
ensures their holistic development. In Neev pre-
primaries, we strive to create warm, inviting, safe,
family-friendly and aesthetically designed spaces that
develop connections, exploration, problem-solving and
wonder. We have designed processes to ensure stringent
safety and hygiene checks in and around our premises.
Open communication networks with parents helps us get
valuable feedback, understand their concerns, share our
initiatives and action plans with them” — Jyoti Talgeri,
principal, Neev Early Years, Sadashivnagar,
Bengaluru (138 children and 22 educators)
