Burlington English, a leading global education provider, onboarded Dr. Swati Popat Vats, the President of the Early Childhood Association of India, as an advisor for the Burlington English Early Years Programme.
The National Curriculum Framework for Foundational Stage (NCF-FS) 2022 stresses play-based learning materials for children aged 3 to 8, an area Dr. Swati has extensively worked on throughout her career. Her philosophy of ‘Kiducation’ binds the realms of education and entertainment. Aiming to manifest the same vision, Burlington English, will get into this age group with learning material. Leena Singh, Publishing Director, Burlington English said, “We’re thrilled to welcome Dr. Swati as our adviser. Her expertise will be invaluable in creating developmentally appropriate learning materials for students in the foundational stage and designing research-backed curriculum support materials for our teachers in line with the NCFFS, 2022. It’s an absolute honour and truly feels magical!”

Dr. Swati Popat Vats, President ECA-APER, stated, “As President of the Early Childhood Association, I am honoured and proud to be the advisor for Burlington English for their Foundational Years Programme books. Burlington English is known for its quality and excellence in materials for students and teachers, and now they are creating quality teaching-learning tools for foundational years. Foundational years are the brain development years and require inquiry-based, play-based learning materials, be it for literacy, numeracy, cognitive skills, or socio-emotional development.
