About
Helen O’Grady International was founded by Helen O’Grady, Executive Director, a qualified teacher in Perth, Australia in 1979. The company works in the sector of education across 40 countries of the world in the spheres of speech and drama, teacher training, drama in education, Trinity courses and many others.
The rich experience gained through implementation of these programs across several countries has culminated in the development of the Helen O’Grady International Early Learning solutions curriculum for our preschools.
In India Helen O’Grady International was launched in India by Harsh Seksaria, Director of Govind Knowledge Ventures Pvt. Ltd. The ‘Seksaria Brothers’ is a 100-year-old industrial house, which has actively worked in the field of education through their many trusts and have set up several schools and colleges in the states of Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra and Rajasthan. Helen O’Grady International is the world’s largest after-school developmental drama programme. Over one million children are enrolled in this programme globally. In India alone, the programme has won the prestigious Best Innovative After-School Programme Award by the Indian Education Congress for three consecutive Years (2014, 2015 and 2016). It all began in Australia in 1979, when Helen O'Grady, a trained drama teacher and actress, hired a hall and commenced affordable after school drama classes for students from 3 to 34 years of age.
