Every student on our campus is promised respect, independence and self-trust. Therefore, Inclusive Education sharpens our focus on catering to the needs of special children and assisting them to be integrated with mainstream education. A multidisciplinary team of closely involved and dedicated special educators, speech therapists and occupational therapists create meaningful and equitable access to a specific curriculum, especially designed for the specific child. Enhancing a child’s motivation to learn from multiple perspectives, through collaborative teaching approaches, leads to positive outcomes. Inclusion is an on-going process that aims to increase access and engagement in learning for all students by identifying and removing barriers.
The Individual Learning Needs (ILN) Department at Genesis uses the Inclusion- Integration approach. This includes:
- Early intervention services to the youngest group with the help of shadow mentors and therapy professionals
- Inclusion and support inside the Classroom
- Inclusion in main stream classes for academics and activities
- Occupational Therapy, Speech Therapy and Sensory Integration Therapy is integrated within the Classroom
- Parent feedback and suggestive strategies for improvement
- Regular networking with additional outsourced professionals for remedial and clinical help
- Regular in-house observations
- Regular Remedial sessions assessments and formal assessments
- Sensitization activities with the assistance of the Social Development Officer
- Sharing strategies with all caregivers to make inclusion successful
