3. Pre-primary Curriculum


        Solid Steps is dedicated to fostering the art of critical thinking and promoting the application of knowledge. To achieve
        this, it has embraced an experiential learning approach rooted in ‘learn by doing’. Play-based pedagogy takes centre stage,
        recognizing the power of exploration and curiosity in shaping young minds.
        In keeping with the spirit of the NCF 2023, the approach emphasises a seamless progression from simple to complex. This
        ensures that learners follow a logical sequence through their learning journey.
