Diagnosis and therapeutic intervention – This vertical acts as the nerve center for the institute and is the first place where our new admissions go to. We have a multi-disciplinary team of doctors, therapists (speech, occupational and physical) and social workers in this section. This team assesses every new child with the aim of early detection, diagnosis, treatment, therapeutic intervention, training and rehabilitation. This team also regularly assesses each existing student and provides ongoing therapy, and medical intervention as needed. In addition, we provide counseling and training to parents and conduct regular workshops for students and their families.
Jai Vakeel School - Education for the Intellectually Challenged (ID) in Mumbai, Talegaon & Deolali
State
  • Maharashtra
Given that we cater to the entire spectrum of ID ranging from mild, moderate, severe to profound, our curriculum is designed to cover all these categories. For children with mild to moderate ID, the focus is more on functional academics whereas for children with severe to profound grade of ID, the focus is more on activities of daily living. Apart from functional academics, our students also learn dance, music, sports, yoga and gardening. We have 350 children in the age group of 5-18 years at our school in Sewri.
