Math isn’t just about numbers- it’s about problem-solving, reasoning, and seeing patterns in the world around us. But for many children, math feels like a challenge rather than an opportunity to explore. That’s why we’re excited to partner with Murty Trust, led by Sudha Murty, whose support will help us pilot and scale Math Games developed by JPAL in our schools. These engaging, play-based games strengthen numerical and cognitive skills, ensuring that children don’t just learn math- they understand it, enjoy it, and build the confidence to use it in everyday life. Because a strong foundation in math and logical thinking doesn’t just prepare children for school- it prepares them for life. A heartfelt thank you to Murty Trust, Shivani Khanwalkar, Neha Pankow, Ph.D., Viji Iyer for believing in the power of early learning and helping us create classrooms where math is a discovery, not a difficulty.

A great classroom beings with a great teacher- one who nurtures curiosity, builds confidence, and creates a space where children love to learn. But for teachers to do this, they need the right support. Yet, too often, they navigate this journey without the training, guidance, and tools to create truly engaging and meaningful spaces. Without support, learning becomes routine. That’s why empowering teachers is at the heart of quality early education. Through hands- on training, mentorship, and resources, we help them transform classrooms into places where children ask questions, explore through play, and learn with excitement. Because education isn’t just about what’s taught, it’s about how it’s experienced. When teachers are supported, children don’t just learn- they thrive. And that changes everything. #EarlyChildhoodEducation #EarlyChildhood #KeyEducationFoundation

Every child’s future takes flight long before they step into a classroom. The early years shape how children learn, think, and engage with the world- yet, many start school without the foundation they need to succeed. With the support of Safran, a global leader in the aerospace industry, KEF is improving the quality of Early Childhood Education for 700 children in Anekal. Through trained teachers, play-based learning, and engaging classroom resources, children will not just enter Grade 1- they’ll enter prepared, confident, and ready to explore new possibilities. Because when a child’s early learning is strong, their journey- both in school and in life- has no limits. A heartfelt thank you to Safran for investing in early education and helping us shape brighter futures.

Some things in life can wait. A missed appointment, a forgotten chore, a delayed plan. But a child’s early years? Those don’t come back. The way they see the world, the way they express themselves, the way they build confidence, it all begins in the first few years of life. And when these years pass without the right learning experiences, it’s not just lessons that are lost, but opportunities to grow in ways that can’t be fully recreated later. Because a child’s earliest experiences shape more than just what they know, they shape who they become. And once that window closes, no amount of effort can turn back time to rebuild what was meant to be nurtured from the start. The best start in life doesn’t happen by chance, it happens by choice. And every moment in these early years matters. #EarlyChildhoodEducation #ChildhoodDevelopment #KeyEducationFoundation

What if the first step in a child’s education determined every step that followed? For many children, entering Grade 1 without a strong foundation means struggling with basic concepts, confidence, and engagement. Without early learning, the gap only widens- making it harder for them to keep pace with their peers. With the support of IDBI Bank, 700+ children in Anekal will now have access to quality pre-primary education- giving them the tools to learn, explore, and grow with confidence. Play-based learning, trained teachers, and interactive resources will ensure that their first classroom experience sparks curiosity instead of fear. A strong start in education builds more than just academic skills- it shapes a child's ability to think, create, and navigate the world. A heartfelt thank you to IDBI Bank for investing in brighter futures and making this transformation possible. A special shoutout to Sai Sankar for his dedication and support in bringing this vision to life.

Teaching children isn’t just about delivering lessons- it’s about creating moments that inspire children to explore, imagine, and grow. From the way stories are told to how play is introduced, every interaction in the classroom can spark curiosity and joy. It’s the little things- building routines, fostering connection, and encouraging exploration- that shape how children learn and see the world. As an educator, you’re more than just a teacher. You’re a guide, a mentor, and the one who turns learning into an adventure. Swipe through for simple, impactful ways to make your classroom a space where children thrive through play. #EarlyChildhoodEducation #ChildhoodDevelopment

A child's first school experience should be filled with wonder, not limitations. But for many children, classrooms lack the very things that make learning come alive- books to spark imagination, toys to encourage curiosity, and teachers who nurture both knowledge and confidence. And without support at home, these gaps only widen. That’s why we’re proud to partner with AON & One Stage, whose commitment to early education is helping us transform Government Schools in Anekal into spaces where learning isn’t just an obligation- it’s an experience. • Books that open new worlds. • Toys that turn lessons into play. • Stories that build language and creativity. • A trained teacher to guide, nurture, and inspire. But the impact doesn’t stop at the classroom. Through the CLAP project, parents are becoming active partners in their child’s learning- ensuring that education continues beyond the school walls, in everyday moments of storytelling, play, and discovery. Because early learning isn’t just about getting ready for school- it’s about shaping who a child becomes. And with the right support, every child can step into a future filled with possibility. A heartfelt thank you to Aon & OneStage - Registered as Charities Aid Foundation India for believing in the power of early learning and making this journey possible. A special shoutout to Bharath Shenoy, Manish Gupta, Udaya Agarwal for their dedication and support in bringing this vision to life.

A classroom should be more than four walls- it should be a place where every child feels seen, heard, and excited to learn. But in many schools across Nagaland, learning felt limited. Children followed instructions, repeated lessons, and sat in classrooms missing the tools they needed to truly thrive. Teachers did their best with what they had, but without the right support, making learning engaging and interactive remained a challenge. We worked with these schools to transform their classrooms into spaces of possibility- where teachers bring learning to life, where play fuels learning, and where children step into an environment that encourages them to explore the world in their own way. Education isn’t just about what’s taught, but how it’s experienced. And when that experience is filled with joy, connection, and engagement, it shapes not just learners, but dreamers and doers. This transformation wouldn’t be possible without the unwavering support of our partners Vibha & Bansuri Foundation, who believe in the power of early learning and brighter beginnings. #EarlyChildhoodEducation #EarlyChildhood #ChildDevelopment #EarlyYears #KeyEducationFoundation #ChildhoodDevelopment

I remember when my classroom felt more like a waiting room than a place of learning. Children sat quietly, unsure of what to do beyond repeating letters and numbers. There were no stories, no hands-on activities, no excitement- just routine. Parents rarely showed interest, many believing private schools were the only real option. Then KEF stepped in. Their training sessions didn’t just introduce new methods- they changed the way I saw teaching. I learned how to use play to make learning meaningful, how to guide children through activities instead of just instructing them, and how to create an environment where children felt excited to be in school. Slowly, I saw the change. Children began talking more, asking more, laughing more. They started working together- figuring out puzzles with eager hands, weaving stories with bright eyes, and discovering joy in learning. I saw friendships form over shared challenges, shy voices grow louder with confidence, and little hands raise with curiosity instead of hesitation. Parents noticed too- they lingered a little longer at drop-off, asked more questions about what their children were learning, and, for the first time, saw government schools as a real option. More families chose to enroll, trusting that this was a place where their children could thrive. Today, my classroom feels alive. It’s no longer a quiet space of repetition, but a place where learning is hands-on, playful, and filled with possibility- Hemavathi. #EarlyChildhoodEducation #EarlyChildhood #ChildDevelopment #EarlyYears #Children #ChildhoodDevelopment
