This aspect of “delay,” broadly categorized as a developmental delay signify an aspect of the child’s overall development (physical, cognitive, scholastic skills) which place them behind their peers. Due to these special requirements, students’ needs cannot be met within the traditional classroom environment. Special Education programs and services adapt content, teaching methodology and delivery instruction to meet the appropriate needs of each child. It is also suitable for those students who are mentally, physically, socially and/or emotionally delayed.
At Arivu, trained teachers provide Special Education training to children with disabilities. 3-6 year old children are trained so that they are able to participate and perform to their level best in the society. Our Programs help children with severe Autism, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), GDD, Speech delays, Down syndrome and other issues.

For older children with disabilities who are not able to integrate into normal schooling nor fit into Special schools, Functional academics, life skills training and Vocational training is provided.
How can NIOS help your child?
NIOS is a flexible method of studying where the stressors of traditional schooling is eliminated. The child can study at their pace.
