Curriculum

The Special Education Department is at the heart of Nations as we firmly believe that every child can and will learn. Our programme is multifaceted as we have an integrated curriculum of academics and a functional and skills component. Individual learning plans are designed based on the needs of the learner and allow us to convert challenges to strengths while enhancing strong skill areas. All learners are integrated into the regular classroom and participate in school-wide activities and competitions. Learners are exposed to occupational therapy, swimming, sewing and design, robotics and cosmetology. Our programme is designed to pave the path for a successful adult life for learners.

Special Education – Learning Knows No Bounds

Our Special Education programme is designed with the child in mind to strengthen his/her gifts and talents while developing strategies to help him / her self-manage and function effectively in society. We use the BrainRx Programme along with swimming and occupational therapy. Students are also integrated into the regular classroom and are engaged in any co-curricular activity they enjoy. The success of our programme is the result of the excellent relationship between home and school.

The BrainRx Programme from Learning Rx

At LearningRx, you’ll do fun, challenging exercises for your brain with the help of your own personal trainer. The face-to-face nature of the training relationship allows LearningRx brain trainers to:

• Focus on results by customizing each training session and encouraging students to work past their comfort levels.

• Focus on attitude by challenging children to recognize and pursue their potential, learning to see failure not as something to be avoided at all costs, but as a temporary stepping-stone to greater success.

• Focus on confidence by encouraging struggling children to fully engage, embrace challenges, recognize improvements, and celebrate gains.
