Bengaluru, 6 July, 2015/PRNewswire/ - 90% of children’s brain development occurs by the time they turn 6. So the right experiences at this early age are undeniably vital. However, Indian preschools often rely on teaching styles that aren’t appropriate for our youngest learners, leaving children unprepared for school and beyond. Understanding the dire need for high quality preschool education in India, America’s largest preschool educator, Sesame Street launched Sesame Street Preschools in India in 2012.
Sesame Street Preschools are child-centered, pre-primary education centres, launched as a venture of Sesame Schoolhouse, the latest educational initiative from Sesame Workshop, one of the largest non-profit informal educational organisations. Sesame Workshop is present in over a 150 countries and produces educational content across television, radio, mobile, tablets and print. Sesame Workshop has been present in India since 2006, through its television show, Galli Galli Sim Sim and now Chamki ki Duniya.
Sesame Street Preschools offer innovative programmes for children aged 1-6 years to engage and learn. Our unique brand of age-appropriate education puts kids at the centre of everything, from playful project-based activities to an environment made for rampant imagination. Children who attend are better-rounded, better adjusted, and more confident. In short, they’re better equipped for school and for life.
Our teaching programs are fueled by thousands of hours of globally commended child-tested Sesame Street education material – thoroughly tested for educational efficacy and engagement. We offer a curriculum which binds together the best of practices followed worldwide in order to promote imagination, critical thinking, communication, collaboration and other such skills children need to develop as global citizens. We also provide our educators with smarter ways and resources that span from workbooks, games, audio visual to digital, to ensure each child achieves a unique sense of learning. Most importantly, we never fail to emphasize on child protection and safety, positive role modelling, inclusion and mutual respect and understanding. And lastly, we try and keep our material as engaging as possible. We always use laughter, friendship and age appropriate story-telling that is demonstrated by our lovable Muppets, in easy to grasp techniques.
Sesame Street Preschool is expanding its footprint in Bengaluru with the launch of two preschools at Sarjapur Road and Kaggadaspura. Two other centres are already running successfully in Bilekahalli and HSR Layout. The positive response from these two inspired us to launch two more schools in the city to address the need for early childhood education.
With a presence across 10 cities in India including Delhi, Ghaziabad, Dehradun, Alwar, Patna, Meerut, Hyderabad, Secunderabad, Pune and Udaipur, Sesame Street Preschool offers programmes for 1 to 6 year olds including Beginners (Parent- Toddler Programme), Playgroup, Nursery, Prep I and Prep II. Furthermore, the preschools also provide a set of afterschool programmes and Extended Day Care facilities which help in the child’s social and emotional growth in a fun filled and supervised environment.
