New initiative to provide pan India teacher training and strengthen curriculum development in Early Childhood Education
Kolkata, West Bengal | September 2026
Oxford International Preschool, an emerging international preschool education brand in India, has announced the launch of its dedicated Teachers Training Unit at PS Abacus, Kolkata, marking an important step towards strengthening the quality and professionalism of early childhood education across India.
The newly established unit will serve as a central hub for teacher training, academic development, curriculum research and educational innovation for Oxford International Preschool centres across the country.
The Teachers Training Unit will provide structured training programmes for preschool teachers and academic teams associated with Oxford International Preschool. The training will focus on developing the skills required to create engaging, child centric and developmentally appropriate learning environments for young children.
The programme will cover areas including early childhood pedagogy, classroom management, activity based learning, lesson planning, storytelling, phonics, language development, numeracy, creative activities, experiential learning, child observation, assessment and age appropriate teaching methodologies.
Speaking about the initiative, the management of Oxford International Preschool said that teacher quality is one of the most important pillars of quality preschool education.
The organisation believes that a strong curriculum can deliver meaningful learning outcomes only when teachers are properly trained, supported and continuously developed.
Pan India Teacher Training
The Kolkata Teachers Training Unit will support the Oxford International Preschool network across India by providing online and structured academic training programmes for teachers working at franchise and partner centres.
The training unit will also develop lesson plans, daily activity planners, academic resources, assessment frameworks and teacher support materials to ensure consistency in academic delivery across different locations.
The initiative is designed to create a continuous professional development system in which teachers receive academic guidance not only at the beginning of their association with Oxford International Preschool but throughout the academic year.
Research and Curriculum Development
Alongside teacher training, the Kolkata unit will undertake research and development in Early Childhood Education.
The curriculum research programme will focus on understanding the changing learning needs of young children and developing innovative approaches to preschool education.
The research and curriculum development activities will explore areas such as:
- Early childhood learning methodologies
- Activity based and experiential learning
- Developmentally appropriate curriculum design
- Language and communication development
- Early numeracy and cognitive development
- Social and emotional development
- Creative and artistic expression
- Motor skill development
- Play based learning
- Child observation and assessment
- Technology supported learning
- Parent engagement in early education
- Innovative classroom practices
The findings from these initiatives will be used to continuously improve Oxford International Preschool’s academic framework and learning resources.
Supporting NEP 2020 Aligned Early Education
Oxford International Preschool aims to develop its academic framework in line with the broader objectives of National Education Policy 2020, particularly the importance given to foundational learning and Early Childhood Care and Education.
The organisation intends to promote a learning environment where children learn through play, exploration, activities, interaction and experiences, rather than depending only on conventional classroom instruction.
The Teachers Training Unit will therefore play an important role in translating the academic philosophy and curriculum framework into effective classroom practices.
Building a Professional Preschool Education Network
The launch of the Kolkata unit is also part of Oxford International Preschool’s larger vision of creating a professional and academically supported preschool network across India.
Through its teacher training, curriculum development and academic support initiatives, the organisation aims to provide franchise partners with a structured education system supported by trained teachers, academic resources and continuous guidance.
The Kolkata Teachers Training Unit will work as an important academic centre for this initiative and is expected to contribute to the development of better teaching practices and stronger early learning experiences for children across the Oxford International Preschool network.
