  • EARLY INTERVENTION

    District

    Puducherry

    The first 3 years of life are critical for the development of a child. Satya Special School’s Early Childhood Programme combines the speed of early identification through the new-born high-risk clinic and the efficacy of services through the Early Intervention Centre (EIC) for the optimal development of the child.
    Satya runs a New Born High Risk clinic at the Jawaharlal Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education & Research (JIPMER) where at-risk children susceptible to developmental delay are identified and appropriate intervention is then started at JIPMER itself. This is a one-of-a-kind centre and the only one providing such services in Pondicherry. A professional team comprising a special educator, early interventionist, physiotherapist, neurodevelopment therapist, speech therapist, occupational therapist and psychologist assess the child for their present condition and draws up a personalized rehabilitation programme in consultation with the parents.

  • INCLUSIVE EDUCATION

    District

    Pondicherry

    States

    Puducherry

    Satya’s efforts toward inclusive education start as soon as a child is diagnosed with a disability/neurodiversity. From an inclusive pre-school and an ability-specific school, to school readiness programs within government schools for effective inclusion, Satya works toward creating models that positively impact all stakeholders. As a start, Satya’s interventions have yielded promising results.
    Alternative Inclusive Centre for Education (AICE) is an experimental inclusive school, where children from disadvantaged situations (street children, school dropouts, gypsy children, children of people in conflict with the law) study with children with special needs following an “ability specific” curriculum, not an age-specific one. For children with disadvantageous backgrounds this is a place of acceptance where their past or their background does not define them, leaving them to pursue their education without stigma. Many children have gone to complete their schooling through the NIOS(10&12)
