The focus of Pratham’s Early Childhood Education program is holistic development of children and their readiness for school in the age group of 3-8 years. This is done with the support of mothers, school teachers and volunteers in the community.
Holistic development and school readiness include four large developmental domains:
Physical Development

Learn to adapt to new settings & people, work in groups, individual, interaction & interpersonal skills
Cognitive Development
Develop basic problem-solving abilities, along with knowledge of colours, shape, symbols etc that are essential for pre-math
Language Development
