Special Education

Occupational Therapy at Openarms Specialized Care

Empowering Every Child to Learn, Grow, and Reach Their Full Potential

At our center located in Kannammoola, Thiruvananthapuram, our specially designed education program aids children of all ability levels with unique learning needs through individualized educational interventions specifically tailored for each child. These educational interventions help to facilitate the development of academic, social, communication, and life skills.

A team of qualified special education staff work cooperatively with each child, his or her family, therapist(s), and teachers to develop a unique learning plan for that child. Each child's unique educational plan is based upon his or her strengths, weaknesses, and desired developmental outcomes. Our teachers use structured teaching techniques and provide engaging learning experiences to foster and develop the child's skill set and confidence needed to successfully participate at home, in school, and in the community.

Our Approach

01
Comprehensive Evaluation of Educational Needs

The evaluation begins with gathering information about your child's present level of academic, developmental, communicative and functional skills to determine his/her strengths and weaknesses in terms of learning.

02
Individualized Education Plan Development

We create an individualized education plan (IEP) that establishes specific learning objectives based on the results of the evaluations and the goals of the family.

03
Structured Instruction

Our specialized educators use research-backed instructional techniques (such as visual supports), tactile activities, and customized learning materials to help children learn in interesting, engaging, and meaningful ways.

04
Collaboration with Families and Schools

In partnership with the family and school, we will provide ongoing support through regular communication, updates on progress, and suggestions to facilitate continued skill development in both home and school settings.
