Inclusive Education for Children with Disabilities

By S.Sankara Raman | Secretory

The challenges faced by children with special needs in accessing classroom education are significant, especially in many schools in India, where these children often experience isolation and exclusion from their peers. This can profoundly impact their development and psychological well-being, affecting their personalities and future prospects. These barriers persist from primary education through higher education in India.

In response to this issue, we established an inclusive school to provide quality education for rural, economically disadvantaged children with physical disabilities. This school allows them to study alongside their peers. What began as a small school with only a few students under a thatched roof in 1981 has now expanded to offer education up to the higher secondary level, with a current enrollment of 670 students.

Over the years, our inclusive Siva Saraswati Vidyalaya Higher Secondary School has guided numerous successful students who have pursued higher education and found careers as lawyers, call center operators, and employees in both government and private sectors.
