Assessing children.
Helping teachers with speaking and listening skills in English.
In September 08 we took students to the assessment centre. The psychologist agreed that Shwetha was eligible for concessions for her Std 10 exams. The other two girls have a report with recommendations for the curriculum and teaching methods to be amended to suit their needs. These are significant steps towards providing appropriate education for all children with Special Educational Needs in the school.
In September 2009 we concentrated on supporting the Dorm Mothers by offering training in How to make homework interesting.
Year 9 girls from the home began a study skills programme that will help them to study more effectively.
