Questions
questions-tableIs this a franchise
No. You own your name, your brand, your choice of curriculum and your business. We provide the software and the training.
Where can I run a preschool
In your home, in a rented room, in a garden or outdoors. This is how most small preschools begin. Rules about premises, ratios and registration differ by country and by region, and meeting them is yours to do.
Do I need a teaching qualification
Rules differ by country and by region. Ask trains you to teach the curriculum, and we help you find the licensing path where you live. Meeting local rules is yours to do.
What does it cost
Setting up is free and fully supported. Payment begins when the school is running and earning, as a fee for each enrolled child.
What is actually ready
Training, the curriculum and Ask are available now. Beacon and Enrol are in development.
Which curriculum do I teach
You choose from the catalog. The Empathy Curriculum is available now and the library already has nature programmes.
Is it safe for children
No photograph of a child can reach the AI. No conversation is stored. Ask refuses to label a child.
Where has this been used
In classrooms in Singapore, Poland and the United States.
Is the curriculum really free
The curricula in our library are free to use, with complete lesson plans and no payment. The Empathy Curriculum is a separate programme, licensed to schools, and it is not part of the free library.
What does accreditation cost
It is part of the fee once your school is running, and it begins the day your school starts as a Candidate School.
When do I start paying
When your school is running and earning. Before children are enrolled, there is nothing to pay.
