Every child has an Individualized Educational Program (IEP) depending on his / her severity
and learning abilities. The program is drawn based on the types of skills required by the child
covering the above activities and reviewed every three to six months.
There is also a Saturday training program called the Living Skills Group that caters to those
children who have been weaned of the IEP. Nine of them come to SSMH every Saturday for
exercise,social interaction as well as learning basic living skills.
Children who have graduated from the above training program and those who are unable to
attend our Training Centre due to various reasons are placed under Home Visitation
Programme where programs are drawn to be carried out at their own homes. Visits are made
at regular intervals by the teachers to assess the child's progress and review the activities
deemed necessary.
