Kidzee, the preschool initiative of Zee Learn (BSE: 533287), organised a significant run in New Delhi to raise awareness about child safety and to combat child abuse on Oct 12. Over 1000+ children from more than 50 schools across the Delhi NCR, Rewari and Muzzafarnagar participated in this important event. During the run, participating school teachers also performed a skit to educate attendees on the need for a secure environment for children.
Manish Rastogi, Whole-time Director and CEO, Zee Learn Limited said “The recent unfortunate incidents have highlighted the critical importance of ensuring student safety in schools. Parents trust educational institutes to implement robust safety measures for their children, especially given the fees they pay. Zee Learn prioritises strict adherence to guidelines that keep our premises safe & secure for all our students. As a responsible society, we must work together to ensure that our educational institutions remain safe havens, especially for our girls. This race is an attempt towards that as it not only raises awareness but drives education!”
Anish Shah, CFO, Zee Learn Limited added “The recurrence of such incidents primarily stems from negligence regarding women’s safety. It is imperative that all educational institutions from kindergarten to postgraduate levels, adhere to strict safety guidelines. Schools and colleges must thoroughly vet their staff to prevent untoward incidents and ensure comprehensive safety precautions are in place.”
