Computer :
Continuing our ongoing efforts towards up-grading our educational system, we have incorporated
computer studies as a subject. This innovation has received over-whelming response from the students &
their parents, we have designed the curriculum in such a way that, it will not only improve students
attention, but will improve fine- motor skills and moreover the students will have a better way to feel the
subjects, what was earlier taught on the black board. This teaching methodology would surely ensure that
the students will not only grasp the subjects but understand it clearly when shown visually.

COMPREHENSIVE SCHOOL
HEALTH SERVICES
Estd. - 1994
The services were started on account of lack of awareness regarding Learning disabilities and
associated problems among the school teachers.
Students
Workshop in normal school
On a comprehensive estimate, 14% of school children have learning disorders. Learning Disability is a
perceptual disorder caused due to minimal brain disorder. The problem is so rampant in the community
and the services available are so poor and this prompted us to start a Centre for Learning Disabled.
To detect children with invisible disabilities, to reach the unreached sector, and care for the uncared children,
we have initiated and formed Comprehensive School Health Service programme. Our team consists of:
psychologists, remedial educators, counselors, social workers, nutritionists and general medical doctors.
We visit normal schools and provide a checklist to the school teachers to shortlist children who have
scholastic backwardness and demonstrate deviant behavior. Such shortlisted children will be screened in
the school and later evaluated in depth by our team of experts.
To facilitate the school teachers to shortlist such problematic children, we conduct sensitization programme
especially for primary school teachers. We make them visit our Centers and conduct a sensitization
programme with experienced professionals at our Centres, so that we can detect children who are lost in
the milieu.
Medical Check-Up :
A team of medical and paramedical professionals conduct medical check-up camps for school children
and identify general problems like health problem, vision problem, hearing problem, speech problem,
dental problem, learning disabilities, emotional problem etc.
