Lighthouse Learning Group Partners with Early Learning Village to Strengthen Globally Benchmarked Early Childhood Education in India
Mumbai, March 06, 2026: Lighthouse Learning Group, India’s leading Early Childhood and K-12 education group, today announced a strategic partnership with Early Learning Village (ELV), a Gurugram-based early years institution known for its child-centred, research-led approach. The partnership marks a significant step toward strengthening and scaling a globally benchmarked early childhood education model in India.
The collaboration brings together ELV’s intentionally small-group, thoughtfully designed learning environment with Lighthouse Learning’s institutional depth, governance expertise, and proven capability in nurturing and expanding high-quality education brands across geographies. Rooted in shared values and a long-term vision for excellence, the partnership aims to extend ELV’s distinctive philosophy beyond Gurugram into new cities.
Founded on a commitment to child-centric, research-led pedagogy, ELV has built a strong reputation for delivering globally aligned curriculum frameworks within carefully curated learning spaces. Its immersive early learning ecosystem integrates global best practices with contextual relevance, prioritising emotional security, cognitive growth, and holistic development.
With over two decades of experience, Lighthouse Learning Group brings robust academic and governance frameworks that support calibrated growth while preserving institutional identity. Its strategic partnerships, including with Heritage Xperiential Schools in Gurugram, reflect its ability to enable expansion while remaining aligned to each institution’s core vision and ethos.
Prajodh Rajan, Co-Founder & Group CEO, Lighthouse Learning Group, said, “We are delighted to partner with Early Learning Village, an institution that exemplifies the highest quality in early childhood education with strong philosophy and deep academic integrity. ELV represents a differentiated, globally benchmarked early years model that aligns closely with our values. We look forward to supporting Priya and Heba as we extend ELV’s framework into new cities while preserving the quality, integrity, and intentionality that define the institution.”
Pradeep Jolly, Co-Founder, Early Learning Village, commented, “ELV has always been built on the belief that early childhood education must be intentional, research-backed, and deeply nurturing. As we look toward expansion, it was essential to partner with an organisation that values institutional integrity as much as we do. Lighthouse Learning’s experience in scaling education brands thoughtfully gives us the confidence to grow while preserving the culture, standards, and child-centric ethos that define ELV.”
