About Early Childhood Care and Education - Edify school franchise



ECCE urgently calls for our attention that it richly deserves. Though from the womb to tomb, education plays a vital role in our being and becoming, the first childhood years are the most crucial period in the lifetime of a human being in which the knowledge he gets can determines his physical and intellectual well-being of his future. The child’s physical growth including the growth of brain in this period is the result of nourishment and the mental development is attributed to the type and form of education he is exposed to.


The child after birth gets its first education at home at least for the first two to three years and afterwards from schools, if admitted. The fact is that a major percentage of child population does not get to school until the age of 6, which leaves them in the hands of ‘home’ for education.

International school franchise
Education at homes that comes with a recipe, whose adaptability to social norms and mental development theories being vague, has to be tested before given for tasting. But where is parental education in our society to throw light on child rearing practices befitting normal development of mind and its faculties? The nourishment requires for the child is mired by male-female prejudices and the mental development is marred by family prejudices and whims. The search for corrective course is of national importance


The child’s mind is a seed having the potential to blossom with all its bees in a caring and nurturing environment. It is not an empty pail to be filled-in. It has the repository of the universal knowledge carried through the genes, but inert and latent, requiring a correct tapping mechanism for its full-blown functioning. Homes where the child has the opportunity of hearing the loving and caring voices of parents, grandparents and relatives – a continuing exposure to the mind to function – are well suited for positive mental development. In nuclear families parental time is rationed and the child is left to the care of childcare homes, where ‘real love and care’ is a matter of speculation and the child’s exposures is limited resulting in below par mental development

A Book is a Dream That You Hold in Your Hand – Edify K-12 school franchise



A working couple comes home tired, hugs the kids, mediates their quarrels and wishes the kids would be preoccupied with something so that they can catch their breath. A stay-at-home parent needs some ‘me’ time, so there’s a sigh of relief when the spouse comes back home from work. The spouse is looking to relax after a hard day’s work. Well, how to keep a child busy? Give them the mobile phone, Xbox, television, iPad…whatever, just keep them occupied. And then we rue that children today don’t read! Who’s to be blamed? What’s to be done? Why, give them a book of course! Read to them , read with them! Bed time is a great time to read to them. Pacans have been written about reading that it exercises the brain and increases your vocabulary, etc.etc.
All are true, more so in today’s context because technology is taking over everything. There are so many ways in which you can enlarge a child’s knowledge and vocabulary. Let them love books, rather than the telly and Google. The best hobby a child can have is reading. You can choose what you want to read, when you want to read and where you want to read. You’re not dependent on company. It’s a moment of pleasure, of private time.

K-12 International school franchise
Love of reading starts from home. Children need to see their parents reading and they need access to books. Read aloud to them beginning in infancy. Your little baby doesn’t understand words, it doesn’t matter. They can see pictures and hear your voice. They understand the intonations and the feelings expressed in those words. Even International schools helps your baby to form a reading habit. For first time parents, the squishy, chewable books are great. Babies read with their mouths! Let them hold it, press it, chew on it. Give them books with sound panels and hear them gurgle when it makes a song or plays a tune. Lift-a-flap books are ideal too.

Peace oriented and work centered education - Edify school franchise


Education therefore has the onerous task of helping the human resources entrusted with it to be at peace with oneself and at peace with others. Education for peace seeks to nurture ethical development, inculcating the values, attitudes and skills required for living in harmony with oneself and with others, including nature. This automatically requires every human being to feel wanted in the society as well as acquire a stature bolstered by one’s self esteem. Hence the need to prove one’s worth through concrete and measurable contribution. This logically leads us to the world of work.
“The school curriculum from the pre-primary to the senior secondary stages should be reconstructed for realizing the pedagogic potential of work as a pedagogic medium in knowledge acquisition, developing of values and multiple-skill formation. As the child matures, there is a need for the curriculum to recognize the child’s need to be prepared for the world of work, and a work-centered pedagogy can be pursued with increasing complexity while always being enriched with the required flexibility and contextually.” Juxtaposed are the elements of inquiry, creativity, analysis and reflection

Contextualizing 3C
