How to Open a Play School?
The increased awareness about the importance of education has made young parents consider preschooling vital for their young children. Moreover, for working parents preschool seems to be an effective way to leave their children in a secure learning environment. Therefore, the demand of small schools i.e. preschool, play school, kindergarten etc. has increased. Seeing the current growth of this sector, many people are showing their interest to open preschools. In case you want to open play school, go through the step-by-step procedure given below:
- The first step is to arrange finance for your venture. Starting a preschool requires Rs. 5-6 lakhs as the capital investment. Hence, apply for bank loans or government to open your play school.
- The next step would be to buy land. So, find a suitable location for your school, preferably residential area because of its easy accessibility for parents to send their children. The minimum land requirement for starting a preschool is 2000 sq. ft. in area. You may also take land on lease with rental agreement of minimum 5 years.
- Next, you need to plan your school’s design. Since, it is a play school, make sure that you assign enough space for activity and play area for children. Make it colourful and attractive for young ones so that they love their school. Further, include swings, toy train, ball pool etc. for children to engage their minds. Remember to build spacious and well-ventilated classrooms for young ones.
- Once your kindergarten school is ready, start branding your school to introduce it in the neighbourhood because parents search for schools which can be a second home for children. So, it is essential to plan some event or a visit for parents to know about your school. This will build parent’s attention toward the services of your school. You may also give newspaper Ad, TV Ad or create your school’s page on social networking site for the purpose of advertising.
- For administration of your school, you need to have a strong team. So, start recruiting qualified individual for teaching and non-teaching staff after branding your school. Make sure that you select NTT teachers to cater to the needs of young minds. Good experience is another important key factor to consider before selecting your staff.
- Lastly, launch your school once the admission procedure is finished and a qualified staff has been appointed.
