| It
is an Institute for specially challenged children (slow learners,
mentally challenged children and children with other moderate handicaps).
In Our Astitwa we consider the child's individual need and provide help
through different therapies to overcome their individual deficiency
and, if possible, give them the chance to get integrated or inclusive
education with mainstream children (Dewdrops Montessori House and St. Sebastian's
School), considering their age and ability. Under the integrated system,
the children with special needs, after developing required skill,
get integrated with normal children. We believe that is essential for children with
Down Syndrome,
Autism and Children with other need to get integrated with main
stream children to overcome their shortcomings to some extent. These
children some times follow the same curriculum or some special module
with concise syllabus and answer patterns are objective type. These
children are also encouraged to participate in assembly, physical
exercises, music, art and craft, cultural activities and sports along
with mainstream children. A special educator continues helping
these children to cope with the system. In our Astitwa we keep children
between 2+ to I5 years of age. It works as a resource centre, where
we provide them different therapies, Montessori apparatus, yoga,
activities dealing with personality development, creative activity,
physical development activities, pre vocational training, functional
training (such as marketing, billing, banking, etc.)
Our main aim is to help them so that they can become independent
and can get acceptance. |
