From the city that gave us the Oxford Dictionary
The UK Project TM 2
Oxford is a major British and European centre for the arts, science, technology and innovation, and a fantastic place to live and study. Scholars, artists, writers, scientists and filmmakers have found inspiration in Oxford's spectacular architecture—the city's famous 'dreaming spires' for centuries.
The Oxford English Dictionary (OED) is from here. OED is widely accepted as the complete record of the English language ever assembled. Unlike typical language dictionaries, which only define words in terms of their current uses and meanings, the OED is a historical dictionary
Oxford is a world-class university.
The Times Higher Education World University Rankings
2023 rank the University of Oxford as the best university in the world for an impressive seventh consecutive year. Oxford was also ranked first in
THE's 2023 subject rankings for clinical and health and the subject rankings for computer science. The University was also ranked in the top 5 in THE's World University Rankings by subject for social sciences, life sciences, business and economics, arts and humanities, law, and Engineering.
Rocksfordz's CAREERS™ philosophy was created at the Oxford Science Park - 625,000 sq ft of new state-of-the-art R&D facilities are anticipated by 2025 in our ambitious development plan. This includes an expected train station which will be transformational for Park occupiers and the local community
Oxford Science Park continually seeks to reduce energy usage and light pollution and provide occupiers with recycling options.
The very name Oxford evokes ideas of academics.

EYFS - Curriculum from the UK
The early years' foundation stage (EYFS) is the educational framework for children aged 0-5. It sets standards for learning, development, and care in early childhood settings.
The seven areas of learning and development covered by the EYFS are:
1. Communication and language
2. Physical development
3. Personal, social, and emotional development
4. Literacy
5. Mathematics
6. Understanding the world
7. Expressive arts and design
The four guiding principles of early childhood development are:
1. Every child is unique and constantly learning.
2. They are resilient, capable, confident, and self-assured.
3. Children learn to be strong and independent through positive relationships.
4. Children learn and develop well in enabling environments with teaching and support from adults. They benefit from a strong partnership between practitioners and parents.
The early years foundation stage is designed to give young children a strong start in life, providing them with the opportunity to learn and grow in a safe and consistent environment. practitioners work closely with parents to ensure that each child has the opportunity to reach their full potential.
Assessments in Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) happen every day, in the form of observations rather than formal testing. A child's progress is reviewed at around two years old, before they start more structured learning, and again at the end of their reception year before they move on to Key Stage 1.
All children in early years will have a 'learning journey'. This is a document that records observations about the child. EYFS practitioners observe children as they play to understand the child’s current attainment, their interests and plan for their next steps accordingly.

Paper
The paper airplane is a symbol of childhood and creativity. It represents the power of imagination and the potential for travel and communication. For many people, the paper airplane is a reminder of the possibilities that exist in the world.
Children are some of the best creators, ideators, and designers. They learn how to make paper planes early on and use them for fun or practical jokes. As an adult, if you were to make a paper plane, you might find it silly. But when you were a kid, didn't the same awe and amazement come over you? That you could take a piece of paper, make a few folds, and now have a toy that could fly through the air? You could play games, races, and fights with other kids!
At Rocksfordz, our brand mnemonic is the paper plane. Paper planes are great examples of how iteration can
create complex results. By making small changes and trying again, you can eventually end up with a design that flies further and faster, or even one that can carry a light load. Paper planes also remind us that even something seemingly worthless can be turned into something amazing.
You would think that in today's digital world, paper planes would be a thing of the past. But you would be wrong! They are now almost an industrystandard logo for 'send' or any communication or messagingrelated concept. You can see them in Instagram, some Google apps, most networking and messaging apps like WayUp, Telegram, and others. So why are paper planes still around? Well, they're just so darn cute!

The
Plane symbolises the joy of learning through play
The UK Project TM 8
Play is essential for children as it allows them to explore different aspects of life and to try out new skills in a fun and safe environment. Different types of play help children to develop different skills in different ways. Through unstructured play, children can learn how to be creative and use their imagination. Structured play can help children to learn how to follow rules, share with others and cooperate.
Some of the important concepts that preschoolers learn at
Oxfords Rocksfordz include the following: Calendar, including the seasons, days of the week, and months of the year, Colouring, Colours, Cooperation Cutting, Drawing and painting and Glueing. Hygiene, Letters. Listening, Nature, Numbers, Physical
activity like running, jumping, skipping, hopping on one foot, and using playground equipment and balls, Shapes, Sharing, Sorting objects, Taking turns, Transitioning from one activity to another, Weather , writing letters and numbers
We all know that children are sponges and absorb everything around them. But did you know that preschoolage children are constantly working on mastering both gross and fine motor skills? At Oxford's Rocksfordz kids spend time actively engaged in developing these skills through activities such as drawing, cutting, coloring, and gluing (fine motor skills) and playing on playground equipment, running, skipping, jumping, and kicking or throwing a ball to a partner (gross motor skills).

Play is an integral part of our curriculum

NEP-compliant curriculum and better, newer infrastructure
The National Education Policy (NEP) of India is a comprehensive policy framework that outlines the goals, principles, and guidelines for the development of education in India. The NEP was last revised in 2020, and it covers all levels of education, from early childhood education to higher education. One key aspect of the NEP is its focus on early childhood education, including preschool education. The policy emphasizes the importance of providing high-quality early childhood education to children from the ages of 3 to 6 years. Most established preschools have curriculum and teaching methodologies which are legacy systems. To refresh and overhaul them completely is a herculean task. Whereas, at Oxford's Rocksfordz, we have built the curriculum ground-up completely in synch with the NEP
The NEP advocates what UK has been following for years:
The NEP advocates what UK has been following for years: the use of play-based and experiential learning methods in early childhood education, as well as the inclusion of both formal and non-formal elements in the curriculum. Oxford's Rocksfordz preschools do not look like traditional preschools. The overall look and feel are smart corporate interiors with plenty of materials co-created by kids. Most preschools have been closed for two years because of the pandemic. They still need the new sheen. That's what makes us different. More play areas. More toys. More activities. More Fun. Kids can rock on and rock steady!

CAREERS -Oxford's Rocksfordz proprietary learning methodology
I will be a doctor. I want to be an astronaut. I am a teacher.
I will become a musician. An AI/ ML expert? A Scuba Diver Dreams.
At Oxford's Rocksfordz, CAREERS is an Acronym
Child centric training Arts & | crafts Reinforcement through | activities Engagement | | Emotion -heart and mind connection Recognize latent | innate talent Skill development |
At Oxford's Rocksfordz, we help understand children's innate talent and streamline them towards activities they love and can shine in.
Imagine a few years later, the child realizes the dreams and feels thrilled!
It is not uncommon for preschoolers to have career dreams or to express an interest in certain jobs or occupations. While it is important to encourage children's interests and curiosity, it is also important to recognize that children at this age may not fully understand the concept of a career or the requirements of different jobs. .
Here are a few ways that parents and educators can support preschoolers' career dreams:
1. Encourage exploration and experimentation: Preschoolers may express an interest in certain careers because they are curious about the work involved or because they have seen someone, they admire doing the work. E
2. Provide age-appropriate information: Children at this age may have limited understanding of the requirements and responsibilities of different jobs. Provide age-appropriate information about different careers to help children understand more about the work involved and what might be required to pursue a particular career.
3. Encourage creativity and selfexpression: Children's career dreams may change as they grow and develop, and that's okay.
4. Foster a growth mindset: Encourage children to see their career dreams as goals to work towards, rather than something fixed or predetermined.

A Preschool with a Rock-solid technology
At Oxford's Rocksfordz we have smart boards - Interactive classroom boards like whiteboards and touchscreen displays that can support interactive and engaging learning in a preschool classroom. These boards present information and resources, facilitate group discussions, and engage children in interactive activities.
Starting a preschool business can be rewarding and fulfilling, but it's essential to plan and manage it to be successful carefully. One way to do this is to use a mobile app to track your progress and profitability. We have a Mobile App for Entrepreneurs.
The Corporate Marketing Mobile App will give school franchise owners access to more than 2,00,000 resources globally.
We have mobile apps for parents and teachers.
We have an inbuilt interactive online school capabilities
We have an Axis Bank payment gateway with a credit card and UPI access for online payments.
High-end video surveillance systems
At Oxford's Rocksfordz, we deploy chatbots and videobotsa type of software that uses artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to create personalized videos for communication purposes. These videos may be used to engage and communicate with customers or employees in a more personalized and interactive way.
Videobots are highly personalized as they use customer data and machine learning algorithms to tailor the content of the video to individual parents.
While preschool operations are high-tech, we limit gadgets to the barest minimum. There is a greater accent on play and activities.

Daycare - with NEP Curriculum + Corporate Tie-ups
Profitable Avenue #2
In today's world, most parents are working professionals. This can make it challenging to dedicate time to childcare while also working. Daycare for a child is a common dilemma for parents who want to ensure their children are cared for without worrying about it themselves. Daycare services in India have become a profitable business while providing excellent care to the children and peace of mind to the parents.
A daycare is where parents can leave their children before going to work and pick them up after their workday has ended. The business owner ensures that the children are taken care of and in the process, educates and engages them in fun activities. Such services include looking after the children by ensuring a proper diet and sleep schedule. Furthermore, owners
generally open such a childcare business at home to give children a homely feeling when they are not with their parents. The process includes redecorating the area to include child-friendly designs and characters.
The daycare delivers more profitability to a preschool as very few preschools offer 12 hours to busy parents. Additionally, daycare admissions happen throughout the year. Very few daycares also have an hour-by-hour curriculum.
We will be bringing in corporate tie-ups. These facilities may be open to children of all ages, from infants to school-aged children, and may offer various services such as full-time care, part-time care, after-school care, and drop-in care.

Pricing strategy based on rock-solid local research
We have a comprehensive Market Research Division, which will look at what is it that parents can pay as fees in a locality
For this, we will conduct neighbourhood research to understand factors like the prevailing rental value of the apartments and villas. The cars people own to determine lifestyle index.
Do a competitive audit of the number of Preschools and daycares which are already existing in that geography and what is the fee structure, and how good is their infrastructure. The detailed SWOT analysis will include an audit of their customer touchpoints, social media strength and digital presence.
Which are the kids' stores available in the neighbourhood? The number of children's hospitals,
Paediatric centres and an audit of the gated communities in and around the locality.
This will give us an idea of the density of the population and the need for a new preschool in that area.
Based on the detailed audit, we will create a pricing strategy focused on market operative pricing. This means that we will assess what the existing preschools are charging, and we will adopt a market penetration pricing strategy which will be highly helpful to parents and the preschool business owners.
For the parents, they get global quality education at a reasonable price.
And for preschool, this will translate into more admissions, leading to a faster breakeven.

SOPs are policies, procedures and standards are vital in operations, marketing and administration disciplines within the preschool business that ensures success
These include:
Daily routine procedure.
Fire drills
SOP -standard operating procedure for Allergy/Food Intolerance Form
Sunscreen and Insect Repellent-Permission Form
Preschool KPIs
and many, many more

These are more than what regular preschools have. We have trained ECCE teachers who are paid more than the average. These contribute to delivering a superior product and a good child experience.
We have a huge multi-crore advertising and marketing budget as an international brand. We spend on
1. TV Advertising

Franchisees
Running a preschool or a daycare is a small business. Run by passionate young moms. At oxford's Rocksfordz running the business is easy and is such a pleasure. Read on.
The idea that they should handle operations, academics and not much more was born to make entrepreneurs' lives easy
At Recentamz we believe that we should take away 50% of the complex responsibilities from the franchisee.
Thus, the concept of a branchise was born. We believe that every franchisee is our own branch office.
If you see the two infographics. The one on the left has shades of green. These are 17 responsibilities of a regular preschool franchisee.
Whereas the same thing in our model -a model that we call Branch-ise we take over several responsibilities completely away from the entrepreneur
In a branchising model, the parent company will handle some components, such as marketing, HR, and training, while the franchisee is responsible for others, such as
sales and operations.
Take a look at this -the II infographic
You will see that the Red areas are fully the franchisor's responsibility. That is the responsibility of Recentamz
The two yellow areas are the joint responsibilities.
The franchisee's responsibilities are denoted in green colour
Now you will see that the franchisor -Recentamz has taken away more than half the heads under their key responsibilities freeing the franchise to focus on their Key Result Areas.
While 50% of the Responsibilities are taken away, we charge just 25% as the Royalty leaving 75% for the franchisee.
Our head office at Recentamz has academic, software, recruitment and marketing teams that take up the responsibility. The team comprises experts who have deep knowledge and experience to tackle these specialised areas. The result: Collaboration Magic that would spell s-u-c-c-e-s-s!

Strict security and hygiene protocols
At Oxford's Rocksfordz we are responsible for ensuring the safety and security of our students and staff. We have checklists and processes that ensure:
1. Controlled access: We implement measures to control access to the facility, such as a security system and CCTV cameras. This can help prevent unauthorized individuals from entering the building.
2. Visitor management: We have a system for managing visitors, such as requiring visitors to sign in and wear a badge or provide identification.
3. Emergency procedures: Preschools should have procedures in place in an emergency, such as a fire or natural disaster. This may include evacuation procedures
and a plan for reuniting students with their parents.
4. Deep Cleaning every week: We follow regular cleaning and disinfection protocols to ensure the health and safety of students and staff. However, it may be necessary to perform a deep cleaning of the facility every week and often in certain situations, such as after an illness outbreak.
We use a cleaning solution and a disinfectant to clean and disinfect all surfaces, including floors, walls, furniture, and toys.
A deep cleaning typically involves thoroughly cleaning all surfaces and materials in the preschool, including floors, walls, furniture, and toys. It may also involve using specialised cleaning and disinfection products to kill germs and bacteria.

TrafficLites - Preschool Performance Monitoring System and Rewards
The TrafficLites metric used by Rocksfordz is a simple and effective way of measuring the performance of a preschool on a quarterly basis. By using the red, amber, and green colorcoding system, it provides a clear indication of how well the preschool is doing in terms of delivering high Net Promoter Scores (NPS) and reducing attrition and student churn.
When a preschool is in the green category, it means that they are performing exceptionally well and are delivering high NPS scores. This indicates that parents and students are satisfied with the preschool's services, and they are more likely to continue attending the preschool in the future. Additionally, when a preschool is in the green category, it also means that they are successful in reducing attrition and student churn, which is a critical factor for the success of any educational institution.
To encourage preschools to achieve the green category, the franchisor will offer additional incentives to the preschools. These incentives can be in the form of financial rewards, additional marketing support, or other benefits that can help the preschools maintain their high performance levels. By offering these incentives, the franchisor can motivate the preschools to focus on delivering high-quality services, which can help them retain their existing students and attract new ones.
In conclusion, the TrafficLites metric used by Rocksfordz is a simple yet effective way of measuring the performance of a preschool. By offering additional incentives to preschools that achieve the green category, the franchisor can encourage them to focus on delivering high-quality services, which can lead to higher NPS scores, reduced attrition, and improved overall performance.

Even within 36-42 Months
The Rocksfordz Preschools offer incentives to their counselors who induct a forecasted number of admissions and additional revenues on a monthly basis. These incentives can be in the form of financial rewards, bonuses, or other benefits that recognize their contributions towards the growth and success of the preschools.
Similarly, entrepreneurs who strive to achieve a CapEx breakeven between two and a half to three years, instead of the stipulated 5 years, are also offered additional margins by the company over and above the 75% they already receive. This means that entrepreneurs who can achieve early breakeven are rewarded with higher profits, which can help them grow their businesses further.
Moreover, entrepreneurs who achieve early CapEx breakeven are also recognized
as part of a special club called Recentamz Business Champions (RBC). This club consists of entrepreneurs who have demonstrated exceptional business acumen and achieved remarkable success in a short period. These entrepreneurs are recognized as stars who can coach other franchises in achieving faster breakeven and growing their businesses.
By offering these incentives, Rocksfordz Preschools motivate their counselors and entrepreneurs to focus on delivering high-quality services, achieving faster breakeven, and growing their businesses. This helps to create a culture of excellence within the organization and encourages everyone to work towards the same goals. Additionally, by recognizing and rewarding exceptional performers, the company also creates a healthy competition and encourages everyone to strive for excellence.

The only preschool in India that gives you a Minimum Guarantee of Admissions of 130 Students over a 2 year period
Rocksfordz Preschool is unique in offering an admissions guarantee to its franchisees. This guarantee provides a minimum amount equivalent to 130 preschool admissions in the first 2 year period of operations. The 12-month period is calculated from the date of the start of the classes of the very first admission. The two year guarantee is subject to availability of admission space in the preschool.
If the preschool franchisee falls short of this target, they will be compensated with a minimum of Rs. 12000/- and a maximum of Rs. 16000/- against each shortfall. This means that the franchisee is guaranteed a certain minimum revenue stream, which can help them in planning and managing their finances effectively.
This admissions guarantee is a testament to the confidence that Rocksfordz Preschools have in their brand name, and the quality of education and services that they provide. By offering this guarantee, Rocksfordz Preschools also demonstrate
their commitment towards their franchisees' success, and their willingness to support them in achieving their goals.
Moreover, this guarantee can also help franchisees in attracting and retaining more students, as parents are more likely to enroll their children in a preschool that has a proven track record of delivering high-quality education and services. This can help the franchisee in building a strong brand reputation, which can translate into long-term success and profitability
In conclusion, the admissions guarantee offered by Rocksfordz Preschools is a unique and valuable benefit for their franchisees. It provides them with a safety net, ensuring a certain minimum revenue stream, and demonstrates the franchisor's confidence in the brand name and the quality of education and services provided.

The only preschool that gives you a 3.5 year CAPEX Breakeven Guarantee and a Preschool Buy Back Guarantee
The minimum guarantee clause of Rocksfordz Preschool is designed to provide peace of mind to the franchisees. This clause suggests that preschools should have achieved 50% of the CapEx breakeven in three and a half years. This means that they will be well on their way to getting the total CapEx back within the projected five years.
However, if the preschool franchisee falls short of this target, Rocksfordz Preschools will give a buy-back of the preschool at a predetermined price range of Rs. 15-18* lakhs. Rocksfordz will buy back the school in the fourth year if the franchise is unable to achieve the CAPEX in threeand-a-half years.
This buy-back guarantee provides an added layer of security to the franchisee, knowing that if they are not able to achieve the minimum target, they will not suffer a total loss. They will receive a predetermined amount for their preschool, which can help them recover their investment to some extent.
Moreover, the franchisee can also transfer the lease agreement to the franchisor, which will ensure that the preschool continues to run smoothly under the same brand name. This can also help the franchisee to avoid any additional costs associated with lease transfer or any legal formalities.
In conclusion, the CAPEX minimum guarantee clause offered by Rocksfordz Preschools provides a safety net to the franchisee and encourages them to focus on achieving the minimum target. This ensures that both the franchisor and the franchisee work towards the same goal, which is to make the preschool a success.
Additionally, the buy-back guarantee and lease transfer option provides the franchisee with peace of mind and ensures that the preschool continues to operate smoothly even in case of any unforeseen circumstances.
