Learning Support for the children with special needs at International School of Hyderabad.

http://www.ishyd.org/cms-learning-support.html

It is the policy of the school to accommodate special needs students, within the limits of the school’s facilities, resources and expertise. Students with special needs who are admitted to the International School of Hyderabad must be able to function within the regular classroom programme with assistance from our Student Support Services.

Where this is not the case the school will ask the parents of the respective children to provide some additional expertise to support the learning process of the child.

The International School of Hyderabad (ISH) believes that all children, including those with exceptional needs and gifts, can be educated in accordance with their special needs and to the best of their abilities. The small class sizes at ISH are very conducive to support and address these needs within the classroom environment. ISH endorses the principle that “each student can achieve his or her full potential and the school’s services for students with different needs are conducted on the basis of this principle. ISH defines different needs, or special needs, as difficulties or exceptional gifts in the areas of listening, thinking, speaking, reading, writing, spelling, and/or computing, as well as in the social, emotional, or behavioural domains. The school recognizes that students with different needs may require different teaching or management methods. Students enter the programme through a referral process. Depending on the circumstances, this support can be either within the classroom environment or through a withdrawal programme.

Slow Learners School Manu Prem School at Mumbai.

Manu Prem School, established by Mrs. Smita Mehta in 1983, caters exclusively to children with special educational needs.  Manu Prem has completed 25 years of selfless service in 2009.

Usually, people regard special schools as those for the mentally challenged or for children with physical or sensory handicaps. However, what many fail to realize is that special schools are also for children who have ‘invisible’ handicaps such as learning disabilities. Manu Prem caters to children with varied levels of learning difficulties. This includes children who are dyslexic, slow learners and those having ADD (attention deficit disorder), ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) and other behavioural and emotional problems.

Manu Prem offers remedial education and coaching for the National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS) Board Examinations. They have students between 6 and 19 years of age. They attend clases from Pre-Primary to Senior Secondary (XII). At the 10th and 12th levels, they appear for the NIOS board exams.

They try to achieve holistic development by providing ‘personalized education’ which focusses on scholastic development, personality development, imparting values and teaching life skills.

Students are offered a plethora of extra-curricular activities such as yoga, judo & gymnastics, sports activities, dance, drama, art & craft and cooking. They can also undertake a psycho-educational assessment, avail the services of a Child Psychiatrist, Occupational Therapist, Speech Therapist and Clinical Psychologist, all of whom are part of the school’s faculty.

A special Individualized Education Program (IEP) that includes academic and social goals is specifically formulated for each child. Each student’s individual program is evaluated every term. Based on the IEP, they custom design teaching methods for each child and also employ specific remedial measures to address their unique difficulties

Inclusive Education is a term used to describe a system of education that seeks to welcome children with special needs and include them in the mainstream. The philosophy of the programme highlights the principle that all children, regardless of their abilities have the right to be educated and be a part of the integrated school system.

At Springdales, Dhaula Kuan, the Inclusive Education Programme has been functional for the past four years and aims at bringing out the potential of each child. It helps those children who are unable to cope with heightened academic pressure by providing them a platform to nurture their talents, work creatively, and establish meaningful relationships and live with self-confidence.

At Springdales, Pusa Road, students with Dyslexia, ADD, Down Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy and physically challenged children are currently enrolled as a part of our inclusive education programme. Special ramps have been constructed all over the school for easy mobility. Along with the special needs educator and the two school counselors all the teachers have been oriented towards inclusive schooling.

July, 2006 saw the establishment of a new inclusive education centre with trained teachers and state-of-the-art equipment. Highly successful with Miss Sonali Bose as the coordinator, the Centre follows individualized curricular for visually and hearing impaired students, as well as those with dyslexia, attention deficit disorder and autism. Freedom and flexibility is provided for all children to progress at their own pace.

As part of Community service, the students of classes XI and XII are allotted periods in which they act as guides and mentors. There is regular interaction between parents, teachers and the coordinator during which educational goals are set up and an assessment system involved.

Appropriately named “Saath-Saath” the special needs centre caters to both skill and intellectual development.

Inclusive Education Facility at Bangalore International School [BIS].

 One of the objectives of BIS is to provide inclusive education, wherein all students of the school, regardless of their strengths and weaknesses in any area, are a part of the school community. The Learning Centre team at Bangalore International School comprises 11 special educators, a speech therapist, a physiotherapist and a developmental therapist. We believe in educating children with special needs in a mainstream school.

They offer inclusive educational placement along a continuum of partial to full general classroom placement depending on the individual need of the student. All children belong to a mainstream class and participate with their mainstream peers in academics, co-curricular and extracurricular activities to the maximum extent.

Students with specific learning difficulties are offered support in the Learning Centre for specific curriculum based remediation, for example, in spelling, in reading, in arithmetic and in comprehension. Some students follow an adapted curriculum which is formulated according to their present level of academic functioning. Students with speech difficulty, in language and communication follow an intensive speech therapy programme, whilst those with motor and coordination difficulties are assisted by the physio/developmental therapist.

In all their endeavours, the focus is on the individual child. So They design a child centered program flexible enough to meet each child's academic, socio-emotional and behavioral needs, thereby ensuring the holistic development of the child.

To increase awareness and sensitivity towards the varied needs of some of their students, their special educators conduct sensitization sessions for teachers, parents, students and support staff. The Learning Centre faculty attend workshops to gain more knowledge of prevalent practices in Inclusive Education and to share professional experiences, thus keeping themselves updated in the field of Special Education.

This school has special education facility.

Indian School of Excellence - “One of the few educational institutions that can identify students’ learning challenges and correctly address them”

Indian School of Excellence  is one of the primer in setting up a separate resource room facility for special education in regular schools where children with Learning problems are given remedial support.

The initiative was taken by the Principal  Mrs. Rumana Ahmed, who is MA - Psychology, PG Diploma in Child Psychology and Family relations. In the year 2007-2008, the Principal felt that the children were not able to perform best though they had good potential.


Then Mrs. Pooja Jha Nair Educational Psychologist  was appointed as free consultant. She established an informal resource room in the year 2008-2009. Every year Assessment were done to children with learning problems and  specific programs were administered.


In the year 2009-2010, Special Educators were appointed and finally formally a resource room facility is being set up.

Special Education Resource Center inaugurated at Indian School of Excellence

Saturday 14th August 2010, Hyderabad:

Indian school of Excellence is one of the leading English medium schools in Tolichowki. This school is one of the pioneers in providing special education to its students.Apart from achieving excellence in their regular curriculum they have set up a separate division to deal with children with learning problems. One of the measures has been creating a resource room that contains teaching aids and advance subject support tools to help normal as well as children with special educational needs.

The resource room was inaugurated by Ms Farida Raj – Director, Center of Special Education, Secunderabad. After the inauguration Ms Farida educated the parents of children about different learning problems and how to deal with them. Ms Pooja Jha a leading educational psychologist of Hyderabad has also contributed to the implementation of the resource room. Ms Rumana Ahmed who is M.A. in Psychology heads the school.

The Indian School of Excellence has been working with children having Learning Difficulties (slow learners, dyslexics, Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder and Behaviour Problems) for the last couple of years. Presently, the school is catering to almost 50 such students. Special educators assess the students, where their problem areas are identified. Then an individual programme is designed and implemented by the keeping the child in the mainstream classroom. The net result is development of self-confidence and improvement in academic performance.

With awareness in our society regarding learning problems, the work done by the Indian school of Excellence is commendable and will go along way in helping these children in overcoming their problems.
