South African Edutech Startup Play Sense Raises Funding

South Africa’s Play Sense, an independent pre-school that offers play-based learning through its online micro-schools platform plaDorm, has secured an undisclosed funding round from Grindstone Ventures as it prepares for expansion.

Play Sense combines various types of play to develop toddlers and pre-schoolers core skills and school readiness. Its micro-school model enables teachers to set up their own playschools at home or in a space provided by one of the families in the group.
