Extracurricular events for students

A 'playground' Buttercup organizes for all students at partner units — giving children a space to practice English and build social skills.

A great program alone isn't enough! Buttercup is committed to helping partners roll out effectively through Operating, Training and Quality Control support systems.

Operating support system

Operating procedures (SOPs)

A standardized operating kit helps partners run classes, enrolment and communications professionally — from a dedicated landing page and brand kit to parent-care workflows, so the center can focus on teaching quality.

Training & quality control system

Onboarding and advanced upskilling

Teachers are onboarded through Buttercup's process to be class-ready. Buttercup also runs sessions to connect the teacher community and help teachers grow professionally.

Training & quality control system

Quality control & mentoring (QC & Coaching)

Buttercup assigns a Trainer to mentor teachers, schedules periodic observations and accompanies teachers throughout the rollout — ensuring consistent quality across classes.
