School for intellectual Disabled

About Intellectual Disability-

Intellectual disability is a term used when a person has certain limitations in mental functioning and in skills such as communicating, taking care of him or herself, and social skills. These limitations will cause a child to learn and develop more slowly than a typical child.

Children with intellectual disabilities (sometimes called cognitive disabilities or, previously, mental retardation) may take longer to learn to speak, walk, and take care of their personal needs such as dressing or eating. They are likely to have trouble learning in school. They will learn, but it will take them longer. There may be some things they cannot learn.

Shri Karni Foundation started a special school for children with intellectual disabilities, equipped with state of the art infrastructure, teaching and learning aids, facility for physiotherapy and occupational therapy. Children with intellectual disabilities are trained in the basic daily activities and functional literacy making them independent. Qualified special educators, physiotherapist, speech therapist and care takers ensure holistic development in a secure and friendly atmosphere. The 1:7 teacher student ratio is to maintain individual care and attention. The school is partially supported by Government of Rajasthan.
