Teaching Method :

Children are assisted to address cognitive, emotional, or physical challenges primarily teaching them life skills. Various techniques are deployed to promote learning. Depending on the ability of the child, teaching methods include intensive individualized programme, therapeutic approach and group learning.

Special educators plan an Individualized Education Program (IEP) for each student. The IEP sets personalized goals for the student and is tailored to the student’s individual needs and abilities.

Our work does not end at school and the teachers work closely with parents to inform them of their children’s progress and suggest techniques to promote learning outside of school. We also conduct special workshops for Parents, so that they can continue the learning process at home as well.

Infrastructure plays an important role in overall development of students. The school has access to large campus and an auditorium. Along with Audio-Visual techniques, students also use the facility of computer lab and a customized kitchen to learn cooking skills. Apart from a soft play area, the school inaugurated a gymnasium that addresses the therapeutic needs of special children.
