Eradicating Disabilities with Education

Eradicating Disabilities with Education
2
The rate of education in India is under stress
due to an exploding population and lack of
quality education, plus lack of resources. Close
to one fourth of the Indian Population is
illiterate. However, this number is abysmal when
it comes to differently able communities and
children. Close to 50 of the differently able
children in India are illiterate. Many of these
have never seen the inside of a classroom. This
number gets worse amongst children with multiple
disabilities

The reasons of these are plenty, such as 1. Lack
of Trained Resources  Teachers are often not
trained to specifically teach differently able
children. They may not know sign language or
techniques which can make grasping easier for
mentally disabled children. Some teachers simply
do not have the patience to be able to handle
these children. 2. No Faith in System As a
result of this, parents often lose faith in the
Indian Education System and either pull their
children out of school and into doing odd jobs
or dont send then to school at all.

3. Lack of Awareness Parents from economically
backward groups often not know about the
provisions that the government has made for
differently able children. Sometimes they just
believe that a physical disability till get their
child nowhere, no matter how sharp their child
may be. 4. Peer Pressure  When special schools
are not available in the vicinity of differently
able children, they are often placed in a non-
specialized school. They may face peer pressure
from other kids and back-out being demotivated.

Trained tuition tutors outside schools are
usually available in cities and can only be
afforded by the crème crowd, as their fees
structure doesnt allows normal strata to receive
education through them. This is why NGOs like
Narayan Seva Sansthan stepped in to make
education available to differently able children
through exquisite education programs.  Narayan
Seva Sansthan is the best NGO for disabled people
with specially trained teachers in sign languages
and in teaching methodologies that benefit the
specially able children.  We have realized that
e-learning can be great platform to teach
children with visual disabilities. We have
special systems designed exclusively for the
visually impaired children, so they would be
treated no less than normal children in the
fields of technology and advancement.

Such schools for the disabled provide them an
opportunity to step up and compete in the real
world. Narayan Seva Sansthan is keen on the
rehabilitation of the disabled and imparts
knowledge with all its key aspects. All students
should have a fair choice in deciding the
direction in which their life is headed. They do
not need to be restricted by anything not even
resources and the right to dream. We hope to
provide these differently able children a fair
chance in choosing their life for themselves. We
aim to provide equal rights and equal
opportunities to all children, as everyone
deserves a chance.
