WE OFFER
Special Needs Education
This is a form of learning provided for learners with learning disabilities or mental challenges. In special needs education, the teachers will have an Individualized Educational Program designed to meet the child’s specific needs. Teachers go through academic content at a slower pace and using various teaching methods to accommodate the pace of the learner.
Therapy
The Section has partnered with House of Hope Medical Rehabilitation Center to provide occupational therapy, speech therapy and physiotherapy to all our special needs learners at no additional fee.
Vocational Training
Our older special needs learners are exposed to vocational training as we prepare them for independence after school. Here they are exposed to different skills including, child care, sewing, mat making, cooking, gardening and maintenance work. We have recently started to offer post school apprenticeships for those who graduate out of the vocational programme.
