Objective of Special Schools in Karnataka

Karnataka has a large number of special schools. They focus on making differently abled children independent and acceptable to society. These schools strive to develop self-confidence, social skills and interpersonal skills in the children. The schools act as the educational and developmental anchors of the differently abled children.

Learning Opportunity by Special Schools in Karnataka

The special schools have trained teachers to impart education to the children. Generally, such schools ensure that teachers provide instructions to individual students or small groups of students so that their needs can be addressed properly.

Many special schools provide opportunities for their students to gain computer skills and vocational training that suits their special abilities.

Extracurricular activities also form a part of the educational course in such schools. In other words, the special schools try to provide all the learning opportunities to a child that will help the child grow and develop into a confident human being.
