1. Think And Choose The Preschool Name Wisely
   thinkingWhat is in name? Everything. Name your preschool after a good thought. Name is everything, it will pull lot of people if it really holds significance. Do not copy famous brands as it is illegal and no fun.

What is the use if you don’t have uniqueness?. Creativity is the mantra. Think calmly – “Why am I starting a preschool and what do I really want to achieve by this?”.

Take a pen and paper and start writing at least 100 creative names, Surely you will find one. Have confidence in your name. When first google was named nobody cared. Once it hit, everybody did.

1. Get permission from the Government, before starting a preschool
   approvedDon’t start your preschool without Government Permission. Strictly speaking, at present, there is no proper state or central law regarding the registration to start a preschool. But, that doesn’t mean there is no state laws exist. You need to go in person and enquire. There is ‘Private School Education Acts’ in Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra and others and there must be in Telangana too.

Once you get licenses and approvals, you are ready to sail smooth. This involves your local Municipal Corporation, Traffic police, education board or council, local health departments and legal requirements for starting a preschool.

Google the word “consultants for preschools” and you will have a big list of consultants regarding this, call at least 10 consultants and choose the consultant “as best” who give you good information without any irritation and is ready to help you set up your education empire.

1. Budget – Calculate And Keep Your Fluctuating Margin

budgetThere is no fixed budget while starting a preschool. What if you liked toys or beautiful kids furniture useful for your preschool kids after you made up your budget and now you wish to add this toy or furniture to your list of equipment?

Keep slight fluctuating margin with your total budget in mind. However, you have to invest on things like business research and marketing, building rental advance if it’s rental property, on re-structuring and painting if it’s own, toys, furniture, colors and paints, children play equipment like slides, slings etc, minor physical and appearance changes in the rooms, etc.

1. Location – select a good place

It is very important to select a good hygienic and spacious location. Parents like to send their kids to good ventilated, spacious and hygienic preschools.

Because of this great value do not indulge in any cheap antics to market yourself. Allow this formula to serve as a guide:

Select a beautiful location for the school.
Invest your time and energy in building an effective preschool.
Invest in quality toys and equipment.
Create quality curriculum.
Create ethical environment and promote values of life.
Though the above have significant role in creating a powerful and good preschool however, always remember that any educational institution whether it’s a preschool, school, college or university, the real strength of the school is not the big ground, beautiful color walls or garden but its FACULTY.

Invest your entire effort to choose the best faculty. If you have the best faculty you will have everything that is needed to create a best preschool of your lifetime.
