The best teachers are those who show you where to look but don’t tell you what to see. - Alexandra K. Trenfor
A single play-school with a dream became the foundation for more than a 100 places of Learning. Who would have imagined that the journey of a play-school called Kangaroo Kids , in a single location in Bandra, would cross the borders and hop over to other countries within a span of 25 years?
Today, our organisation has not only been invited overseas, but has also set benchmarks for other CBSE, ICSE and IGCSE schools to follow.
OUR MISSION IS TO IGNITE
GREATNESS IN OUR CHILDREN.
Founded by Lina Ashar in 1993, the organization has more than 25 years dedicated to creating meaning, purpose and a love of learning. KKEL has its presence spread across 4 countries (India, Dubai, Maldives & Qatar), with 100+ ICSE, CBSE and IGCSE schools & preschools operating in 50 cities. As pioneers in the education space, KKEL introduced new age learning to India - initially in the Preschool space and then in the K-12 space.
I am still learning. - Michelangelo
While academic qualifications are accomplished in a fixed time span, learning is endless and lifelong. This is a mindset we instil in our students, over the years. Like the sculptor Michelangelo, we want them to never become complacent with how much they know. Instead, they should constantly measure their progress with how much they don't know.
KKEL is known for its exceptional and unique instructional design. Its curriculum has been awarded 36 times. All our instructional design is based on neuroscience based studies.
Despite being in the education sphere for 25 years, we are constantly challenging ourselves, to craft novel and engaging experiences using research based theories on how the brain best learns. We are eager to understand what motivates the new generation of children, so that we can keeps them engaged. Our constant pursuit is helping us know more about accessing and igniting emotional connections to learning.
“Who questions much, shall learn much, and retain much” - Francis Bacon
As educators, we are passionate about teaching. In turn, we want our students to be committed to learning, beyond the classrooms.
We want them to stay thirsty - for more knowledge
We want them to remain curious - about new ideas
We want them continue asking - for more answers
Year after year, parents wholeheartedly appreciate that our students are imbibing a value-based education. Our teachers are the pillars on which our success stands. It is this consistency that makes our ICSE, CBSE and IGCSE schools be counted amongst the most prestigious schools of India.
“When you learn, teach.
When you get, give.”
- Maya Angelou
In the coming years, our students will be leading their lives as professionals in the fields of art, music, writing, sport, technology, medicine and teaching. No matter what they pursue, we believe they carry a spark of greatness within them... and the spark will blaze into a fire.
