In today’s progressive society, it is our collective responsibility to ensure that every student, regardless of their unique needs, receives an education tailored to their requirements. Recognizing the importance of inclusive education, SpecialSaathi, in association with Satyam College of Education Noida, conducted the Schoolsaathi Awareness Program on their campus. This program focused on two significant topics: the development of an Individual Education Plan (IEP) and effectively dealing with students’ diversity in the classroom.

The program emphasized the belief that every child deserves an equal opportunity to learn and thrive.
Insights and Best Practices:

Addressing Specific Challenges:
Participants explored the importance of collaboration, teamwork, and the role of parents and guardians in supporting the holistic development of each child.
