Vision


Lina AsharMy mind is always preoccupied with thoughts of how children should learn and ‘absorb knowledge’ and how to create pioneering ways of ‘transferring this knowledge’. My fundamental and cherished dream has been to devise the most innovative learning and teaching techniques in order to introduce them successfully in India. My team and I have spent ten years of fighting for the right of children to a stress-free childhood, and to prove education can be a joyful path to gaining knowledge. We have shown that learning can and should be fun. After developing ‘unique and successful learning systems’ for preschool children, Kangaroo Kids Education Ltd. has now devised learning systems for Primary and High Schools.

Our vision is to be acknowledged as a leading provider of curriculum frameworks that develop a range of pathways to life long learning. Our belief is that all children should have the opportunity to experience the joy of discovery and develop a love of learning. We are distancing ourselves from a content-based rote learning system. We do not believe in creating robots that demonstrate rote memory of course content. We want to create real learners who have complex, flexible maps of learning that allow them to change course if necessary. To do so, learners must learn for meaningfulness. Rote learnt information is largely stored in the short-term memory and quickly forgotten. Information that is not integrated and related to previous experiences is discarded and replaced with the next piece of information. To us that is a waste of a child’s youth and learning potential. Most importantly it is not an enjoyable and engaging learning experience for children that will motivate them to learn.

Quality Education is the right of all children. It is easy for a school to ‘look good’ if they selectively choose children from the high-income groups after assessing for high achievement. Programs for the gifted and high flyers are simply not democratic. Social justice can only be achieved by open entry for admission and an education system that provides a high quality infrastructure to enable all children to experience the joy and wonder of learning. Our vision is to create schools and learning environments that exist and operate programs for all individual learners allowing them opportunities to reach their potential.
