To prosper and grow into independent individuals, specially-abled
children need a lot more than mere studies. They require a special school that
takes care of not just their education, but also their overall development.
The goal of any educational system should be to meet the needs of
students and not to focus on arbitrary educational objectives. Sadly, the
latter is often the case. The need for an educational system that is flexible
and able to adapt to the learning needs of individual students is the primary
motivation behind the establishment of the SASE.
This is why SASE works with schools to help them transition them
into new cultures of inclusiveness. Education providers with inclusive cultures
adopt attitudes, approaches and strategies that ensure no learners are excluded
or isolated from mainstream educational opportunities. Within that culture, all
learners – disabled, as well as, non-disabled – can feel valued, safe and
confident. They are adequately provided with all the support they need to
develop their talents and pursue their aspirations. In that context, teaching
is flexible enough to accommodate the needs of all students; disabled pupils
and non-disabled students work side-by-side, and assessments are designed to
ensure that all learners have a chance to reach their full potential.
SASE uses a multi-pronged approach that encompasses students, parents
and schools. We provide alternatives to the standard schooling system,
including the option of homeschooling. We also help schools provide inclusive
education, remedial education and more. Established by a team of educators, SASE
supports mainstream schools by helping to identify students with special needs;
counseling parents and teachers; assisting with implementation of a more
supportive learning environment and developing flexible assessment frameworks
that take every student’s uniqueness into account.
At SASE, apart from basic education, we include our students
in therapy sessions that help them fluently
communicate with the world, move about without any assistance, and not be
dependent on anyone else for the tiniest of jobs. Our special educators help us
in creating a homely environment filled with empathy and care towards the special
children.
Speech and language are instruments that let us express
ourselves, and our fully functioning limbs help us stay connected to the world.
At SASE, we help children with speech defects overcome the difficulties they
face while communicating with the world. We also have physiotherapy for
children who can’t move freely, and occupational therapy for autistic and other
disabled children who are hypersensitive or under-sensitive to light, touch and
noise.
By empowering individuals with speech defects,
intellectual impairments, cerebral palsy, autism, hearing impairment and other
similar disabilities, SASE works towards creating the possibility of an optimum
quality of life for them. With a collaborative and multi-disciplinary approach
towards betterment of the society, we ensure that each child at SASE gets
nourishment in their growing years, so that they prosper and scale the highest
peaks in their adult lives.
