IEDSS (Inclusive Education
for Disabled Children at Secondary Stage)
We are running this
program with the help of the government of India and the IEDSS cell based at
GCERT Gandhinagar. Here we cover disabled children with different categories
from Std 9th – 12th. These children study in the normal
schools of their own villages. Our special teachers who are trained in that
particular category teach these children and provide all the special training
needed as per the disability of the student. They also help them to get all
kinds of Government and Non Government benefits. In this program our special
teachers cover the following children with disabilities.
