COMPANY INFORMATION The Children’s Garden School is a progressive learning community in Nagpur which is growing from a kindergarten to primary to now into a K–12 institution. Our approach to education is deeply child-centered, inquiry-driven, and rooted in experiential learning.

At TCG, children learn through exploration, movement, projects, hands-on work, and meaningful real-world experiences, building the confidence, curiosity, empathy, and self-awareness they carry into the world.

We believe that mathematics is a powerful medium for reasoning, pattern-seeking, and sense-making. Maths at TCG is not confined to a standalone subject of formulas and procedures, it is woven into integrated, cross-curricular learning, becoming a language through which children explore patterns, systems, and the world around them.
