The early childhood education industry, like most others, is a dynamic field, one that’s influenced by trends and research that a good franchisor, like Children’s Lighthouse Early Learning Schools, will address. A preschool franchise opportunity is only as good as its business model, and the business model can only remain outstanding if it is responsive to industry changes.
Given this, what are some industry trends that are shaping the early education arena? In this blog, we’ll take a look at a few of them, and how the Children’s Lighthouse brand not only responds to them but has been ahead of the curve.
Engaging the Whole Child
The goal of today’s early education industry is to engage the whole child, and at Children’s Lighthouse, we’ve always known that a holistic approach offers the best strategy. That means we place equal importance on academic and non-academic areas of development. Our proprietary Lighthouse Pathways™ approach to learning provides infants and toddlers, as well as preschool and school-age children, opportunities to engage in character and values-based education, as well as STREAM-based learning. It also allows children to explore music and physical education . We understand that children are unique individuals with diverse skills, interests, and needs, and we always give them plenty of room for self-expression.
Our personalized learning approach also factors in the importance of building on relationships and collaboration, and we create a positive and supportive school community, allowing children to develop important social skills, empathy, and resilience, providing a strong base for future success.
Nurturing a Lifelong Love of Learning
Educators today are striving to instill in children a love of learning, one that will stay with them throughout their lives. At Children’s Lighthouse, we’ve always known that setting the stage for a lifelong love of learning should start as early as possible. That’s why all schools at Children’s Lighthouse believe in our Brand Promise to create a safe, fun, and happy place that gives children confidence, a sense of comfort, and a lifelong love of learning, friendship, and community. When you take advantage of a Children’s Lighthouse preschool franchise opportunity, your school will immediately be known for teachers who make a difference by fostering a positive and engaging environment that instills curiosity and a thirst for knowledge. Your school will set the tone for a child’s future academic pursuits, and parents in your community will appreciate the emphasis you place on a child’s intellectual growth.
Collaborating with Parents
They say it takes a village, and at Children’s Lighthouse, we believe that. We know a child’s physical, intellectual, and emotional well-being depends very much on a collaborative effort between educators and parents, and our brand is known for keeping the channels of communication open at all times. Children’s Lighthouse recognizes the vital role parents play in their child’s learning journey. Through regular communication, blogs for parents, and involvement in the classroom, parents are empowered to support, extend and reinforce their child’s learning at home.
