Most of the people in India get attracted to the preschool business for the simple reason that it provides easy money, but it is important to be ethical and not start a preschool just for the sake of money. If you intend to start a preschool in India, start it with an intention to do this business in most the most morally dignified manner, because preschools are not just businesses. A preschool plays an important role in molding the child and forming the base for his or her education. This article will enlighten you regarding all the steps to be taken to start a preschool (also known as play school) in India.
Steps
-
1Get permissions to start a preschool. Presently, there is no central law regarding the registration to start a preschool, though some state laws exist such the 'Private School Education Acts' in Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra and others. Many other states have letters issued by the State Government (under the guise of RTE Act), regarding the starting and running of a preschool. For more details, you can consult a Preschool Consultant regarding this. 'Preschool for Child Rights' is the most popular and proper consultant regarding this.

2Name your preschool. Name holds a lot of significance. Do not copy others' names, as it is illegal as well as unethical. Start your thought with this line - "Why am I starting a preschool and what do I intend to achieve by this?".Advertisement

3Define your budget. You need to invest on things like business research, project know hows, rental advance, toys and equipment, furniture, colours and paints, some changes in the rooms, etc. For more, you may consult a preschool consultant regarding this.

5Select a location. Location also plays an important role. In preschool marketing, location has a great value. Besides, do not do not indulge in any cheap antics to market yourself. Allow this formula to serve as a guide:

QuestionHow do I find a company to register my preschool in India if I don't want to franchise an existing brand?
wikiHow Staff EditorThis answer was written by one of our trained team of researchers who validated it for accuracy and comprehensiveness.
Staff AnswerwikiHow Staff EditorStaff AnswerIf you don't want to open a franchise, you would be creating your own company to operate your independent preschool. You would still have to meet the same guidelines as a franchise-based preschool. Your state Commission for Protection of Child Rights has information on these guidelines and how to have your preschool certified.

QuestionI am interested in opening a playschool but I don't have any experience. Can I open a playschool? Do I have to manage teachers or will others help in providing them?
Community AnswerI suppose you would need some sort of business degree/experience if you wanted to open a playschool. If you don't intend on studying or gaining experience in child development you could hire a director who has all the knowledge and experience necessary. If a director handled the teachers and classrooms you could handle finances and policies and it would all work out!
