At Orange Ivy we ensure that our curriculum and teaching methodology strongly adapt to ensuring basic skills like empathy and patience are ingrained in our learning. We emphasize on developing the Emotional Quotient (EQ) as much as the Intelligence Quotient (IQ). Our objectives, aspirations and teaching methods are well planned and documented; we try to customize the learning process, for every child who is a unique entity with his or her own set of strengths and preferences. Play school education should be educative, transformative but not strenuous. We are the first school in India to introduce Emotional Intelligence at play school level. It enhances the capacity to perceive access and manage the emotions of self and others.

At Orange Ivy we offer both Play-School and Kindergarten programs. Play Group Pre-Nursery (1.5 yr) Nursery (2.6 yr) Kindergarten Lower Kindergarten (3.6 yr) Upper Kindergarten (4.6 yr) Our Environment At Orange Ivy we firmly believe that the look and feel of a school indoors as well as the outdoors impacts a child immensely. A good, children friendly, colorful and thematic environment will influence a young mind positively. Therefore we lay a huge emphasis on the interiors and exteriors for our young student. Pre Nursery At this tender young age –the idea is to provide an environment of home away from home. Since this is the first time the child steps out of a protective home environment, we at Orange Ivy strive to ensure we make the child as comfortable and our play schools as homely as possible. Children at this age learn from interaction with the new friends they make at play school. All activities at the pre nursery level are age appropriate. The play area specially caters to different activities and has special equipment and props like Sand pit , water play area, book corner etc. The emphasis is on the child to develop freely with engagement and personal touch. Nursery Cognitive skills are what separates the good learners from the so- so learners who are average at performance. This is the stage of life where children develop these skills through experiential learning, their basic five senses develop and they apply their mind to think for themselves. They learn about different material, colors, shapes and patterns. Simple story telling and group activities which are child centric are at the core of our learning process.

They move up to handling different colors & their shades, complex figures & shapes. Upper KG This is the time when Orange Ivy Kids are getting ready to move to a formal schooling program. They are being made ready to face any kind challenges that could come their way in future. By now they can work in groups & have good control over their communication. The idea at orange Ivy is to teach a child how to articulate his or her dialogue. They are also exposed to concepts such as problem solving, good hygiene and sanitation, table manners, basic etiquettes, safety & sense of dressing up and well being. A bit of time planning is also imbibed by having a structure and yet a flexible routine for the children.

We are the only play school in the country that ensures a healthy balance of Emotional development with Intelligence. IQ is still recognized as an important element of success, particularly when it comes to academic achievement. However, research has found that individuals with strong leadership potential also tend to be more emotionally intelligent, suggesting that a high EQ is an important quality for business leaders and managers to have.
