Here’s why Parents love Cornerstone

    Cornerstone has been instrumental in creating a good routine for my child during these difficult times.

    Cornerstone has been instrumental in creating a good routine for my child during these difficult times. The educators here ensure the classes are held seamlessly and make a note of the minutest things the children do. This helps in tracking their growth at a micro level. My 3 year old has grown more accustomed to the routines in the class and is happily engaged during the sessions. The activities involving interaction between the students, even though online, helps to stop it from being solitary education. Suffice to say that my child misses his classes over the weekend and asks when his next class is. Minute observation by the educators and personal attention given to all, with really small batch sizes is what reaffirms my belief in the Cornerstone team and I’m sure other kids that join the school shall also benefit immensely from the stellar atmosphere at Cornerstone.

    Cornerstone educators give a lot of attention and personal focus to the child's development and well being.

    Our daughter has been attending Cornerstone ever since she was a year and a half old. Cornerstone educators give a lot of attention and personal focus to the child’s development and well being. They combine aspects of structured as well as free flow learning methods, which allow the child to progress at their own pace. 

    In the last five months ever since the COVID situation forced the schools to shut down their on campus classes, Cornerstone has continued to engage with the child for two hours a day virtually in small, intimate group settings with the educators. Our daughter has continued her formal learning process and really looks forward to these virtual classes. As parents we feel that Cornerstone is an equal partner in the growth and success of our child in her formative years.

    Cornerstone is the best Preschool in Baner & Pune.

    Cornerstone has become like a second home to me 🙂 

    Founders are very different from how other schools think. They are very involved & it shows. The teachers are very well qualified and loving. They have a strong focus on each & every child & their learning, which is remarkable. Both my kids have become curious, confident & so independent! Exactly how I have wanted them to be.

Cornerstone’s Philosophy of proven, holistic & balanced nurture:

We believe that the best learning center, the best preschool, the best playgroup should cover the below aspects very well –

preschool learning

How did it all start? – About us & our story

Do you think what we learnt and how we learnt in our schools was even remotely relevant in shaping our professional & personal lives?

We certainly don’t.

While graduating from the top MBA & engineering colleges of the world, and working in top global MNCs, we realised that the factory model of schools, preschools, learning centers just doesn’t do justice to ‘education’. And when all of us are so differently wired, does it even make sense to have a one solution fit all methods of teaching?

Yes, Academic rigour is crucial and important to build sincerity & resilience. But is it enough?!

With a deep rooted passion to impart the right education for kids & aided by learnings from global educational experience & technology enabled execution, we want to honestly answer the Why, the What, the How and the When in educating the kids.
