Running a preschool

• Kreedo provides a Developmentally Appropriate Curriculum that imbibes the best practices from several established education methodologies. We have identified various intelligences / skills that could be either interest based or need based as the case may be and have identified methodologies, techniques and materials that would develop and enable those skills in the child. The curriculum objectives themselves are a lot more advanced compared to those offered by others and the curriculum provides a stress free way to achieve them for every child.
• Solution includes high quality Educational Materials to support the curriculum.
• Furniture to create a high class environment.
• A multimedia based teacher training software that includes videos on how to present the materials to the child. Continuous training & monitoring throughout the year through video conferencing, skype calls and one-to-one teleconferencing. 5-day intensive training workshops for all our customers at our model preschool in Bangalore which is also our academic headquarters.
• A child evaluation software that enables the teacher to create an Individual Education Plan (IEP) for every child and track the development of the child in the environment by effectively observing and recording information about the child’s activities on a day-to-day basis.

It has been identified that the early years from 2-6 are one of the most important time for brain development and learning in a child. It has been proven by experts world over repeatedly that the capacity for a child to absorb concepts and learning is the highest during these years. So, it is very necessary to identify areas of development that need to be focused on during these years of the child’s development and ensure that the same is imparted in an effective manner to the child. Blackboard learning and learning by rote does not work nowadays. The child learns through experience and repeatedly performing activities that interest him / her. For the 1st to 12th grades in schools, a curriculum is defined by whether the school follows ICSE, CBSE or State boards based on what the school has adopted. But, no such standards have been defined in the preschool segment. Hence, it is extremely important that a clear cut curriculum is defined and enabled by materials which can be used to develop a variety of skill sets, interests and intelligences in the child. 

When the curriculum was originally developed, extensive research was done to ensure that we are doing the right thing for the overall development of the child. Inputs were taken from the following sources:

• Several early childhood educationists
• Various books related to the cognitive as well as overall development of the child
• Special educators
• Montessorians
• Preschool owners
• Teachers who work with the children

We took 2 years to do research in several areas and combined this with our experience with preschools for 20 years and developed this curriculum. The curriculum places a lot of emphasis on the overall development of the child, keeping in mind the competitive world we live in today and the expectations of parents from preschools, and finally helping the child adapt to this environment. We opened our self owned model preschool in Bangalore in 2013 to continue our research and experiments on early childhood methodologies and refine our curriculum. All our experiences of working with children are fed back into improving our curriculum. This is an ongoing exercise where we keep working on finding new ways of contributing to the overall development of the child.

Kreedo is a solution provider. We are giving you all the tools you need to run a preschool and for this, we charge a fixed one-time charge. There are no royalties. We encourage the customers to build their own preschool brand and we believe that with the tools and expertise we provide, the customer can run a best-in-class preschool. Given our attractive solution offerings, the investments to start a preschool are quite low and hence the return on investments is much faster.  Also, the curriculum solution being provided ensures that the customer does not have to be dependent on Kreedo for ongoing support. This we do through teacher training videos, knowledge base support and other such mechanisms. The curriculum itself is revolutionary, incorporating methodologies from the best in class theories and practices in the world today (including Montessori, Multiple Intelligence and so on) – and if implemented in the right fashion, it

Yes, the investments can be staggered where the customer can adopt a basic offering to start with and gradually upgrade the curriculum over a period of time.

Kreedo is not a franchisor and hence we do not commit to any return on investment as is the market norm. What we can assure you is that since the set up costs are low, the school would break even a lot faster and the return on investments would be considerably high. Also, since it is not a royalty based model, there are no recurring costs from a curriculum perspective which again increases the Return on Investment. 

The solution was developed with focus on semi-urban areas, tier 2 and tier 3 cities. All these places usually have a high demand for quality education. The parents are less likely to be carried away by fancy brand names, and more likely to attach importance to quality education.
The low set up cost ensures that you can provide state-of-the-art preschool education in an effective manner to children in the non-metro areas at an affordable price. Also, the “Wow” factor for such a premium curriculum would be a lot higher in the non-metro areas which would attract the parents a lot more easily.

The offering cannot be broken up piece meal as there are a lot of inter-dependencies that ensure the effectiveness of the offering. Removing even a single cog from the wheel would result in a dip in the overall effectiveness of the offering and its benefits to the school. But, we do provide offering options which allow you to gradually upgrade your curriculum.

As mentioned above, Kreedo has developed a revolutionary preschool solution that can take your existing preschool to the next level in terms of the type of education imparted to the child, feedback to parents on the strengths / interests of the child and also ensuring that there is a structured path for every child to develop skills and interests. Hence, adopting the Kreedo curriculum would help you get better return on your investments as well as providing the best for the child in your preschool.
