Increased Number of Working Women to Drive the Preschool or Child Care Market in India Until 2020, Says Technavio

LONDON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#ChildCare–According to the latest market study released by Technavio,
the preschool
or child care market in India is expected to grow at a
CAGR of close to 22% during the forecast period.

This research report titled ‘Preschool
or Child Care Market in India 2016-2020’ provides an in-depth
analysis of the market in terms of revenue and emerging market trends.
This market research report also includes up to date analysis and
forecasts for various market segments and all geographical regions.

Based on Technavio’s findings on the preschool or child care market in
India, only 1% of the population under age 6 is enrolled in preschool
education. This leaves a gigantic scope for the market to grow
during the forecast period. With more families migrating to urban cities
owing to better employment opportunities, the demand for reputed private
preschools will register a strong growth.

Jhansi Mary, a lead analyst at Technavio for research on K12
and higher education, says, “Increased number of working
women has been a major driving factor contributing to the growth of the
preschool or child care market in India. This growth in the female
labor force has led to the rise in the preschool enrollment rate.
This is because working women with children choose to send their
children to day care centers or preschools while they are at
work. An increase in the number of working mothers led to an increase in
the disposable income in dual-income households, which has led to higher
average household income.”

According to World Bank, in 2014, women constituted 48.2% of the
total Indian population, of which 27% took part in the labor force.
Young women from rural areas are moving to Tier 1 and Tier 2 cities in
India for better opportunities. It is estimated that more 60% of women
in urban areas are employed in the public and private sectors.

The report categorizes the preschool or child care market in India into
two segments based on ownership:

• Organized preschools
• Unorganized preschools

Preschool or child care market in India by ownership 2015 (% share)

In 2015, the preschool or child care market in India was dominated by
the unorganized sector with a market share ranging between 60% and 67%.
The growth in the unorganized ownership of preschools is due to the lack
of proper regulation for establishment of preschool or child
care services and no mandatory curricula that are to be followed
by institutions.

Technavio researchers predict the ownership of the organized
preschools to increase slightly in 2020 as the government of India
is planning to regulate the Early Childhood Care and Education
activities to ensure quality education and provide appropriate standards
to all children in the country. This regulation may lead to the downfall
of the market share occupied by the unorganized preschools. Many
nonprofit organizations are also providing child care facilities in
major cities.

“With the implementation of Early Childhood Care and Education by the
government, awareness will be generated among parents in rural areas
regarding the preschool education. The quality of the education will
also improve as all institutions will be required to follow mandatory
regulations and curricula to provide preschool education to children,”
asserts Jhansi.
