The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) is all set to draft guidelines and policies for children with learning disabilities. Parents and experts working who work in disability space feel that this is going to be a great move since it promotes an inclusive environment. The child will also receive individual care and attention which will help them to do well in academics and other extra curricular activities.
For 10-year-old Natasha*(name changed), getting enrolled into a prominent educational institution in Bengaluru was the start of a cycle of anxiety and stress. After her teachers expressed unhappiness at her academic outcomes, she was tested and diagnosed
with dyslexia, a learning disability. She now gets individual care and attention and is coping better.
Like Natasha, many kids with learning disabilities struggle to cope in mainstream set ups. Their plight has come in for some attention from the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), which is set to introduce specific guidelines and policies for children with disabilities. These will be implemented in the over 20,000 schools across India that comes under the syllabus.
