An EducationWorld Jury award always makes us
happy and proud. This recognition validates the
“commitment of our team to make KK-N into a
progressive school. Our transformation into a future-
ready school can be attributed to our research-based
curriculum that encourages innovation in young learners,
fosters parent-teacher engagement and equips parents
with digital tools and techniques, and creates lifelong
learners. At Kangaroo Kids, we are fortunate to work
with progressive leadership that helped us create robust
infrastructure that supports integration of technology
in education” — Sharmila Chatterjee (centre right),
principal, Kangaroo Kids, Noida

We are proud to be honoured with the Teacher-
Student-Parent Engagement Award 2021-22.
“Thank you for recognising the efforts of our
passionate, caring and highly qualified teachers who
have quickly adapted to technology-enabled digital
pedagogies to maintain learning continuity of our
youngest children. They have established a healthy
connect between teachers, students and parents during
the pandemic months that forced closure of education
institutions countrywide. We are inspired to continuously
innovate and upgrade our best teaching practices” --
Madhuparna Andrews, principal, PB Academic
School (Pre-primary), Kolkata (350 students and 10
