GROW with Educare Centres: Providing quality early childhood education in the community while empowering women

FacebookTwitterLinked In

Start Date: 01/01/2019- End Date: 31/07/2021


Project Lead(s): Tracey Chambers

GROW with Educare Centres' vision is to develop a national brand of quality, inspirational, aspirational, fee-paying Early Childhood Development centres in low-income areas for children between the ages of 2 and 5. GROW is innovative in that it used social franchising as the pathway to scale and has successfully replicated the model to 20 schools in 3 years. GROW provides schools owners with a turn key solution which enables even unskilled teachers to establish a quality early learning facility while also ensuring excellent education outcomes and whole child development.
