• To provide a 365 days provision offering education in the day care centre as well as in the residential set-up to students between 3-19 years of age who have Autistic Spectrum Disorders and associated conditions including mental retardation.
• To provide a broad and balanced curriculum so that these children too can develop their inherent potentialities and be included into the main stream of the society.
• To provide a quality 24-hour learning environment that supports the individuals in developing their optimum potential.
• To provide for each student a service based upon an individual education programme (IEP) that acknowledges and challenges the triad of impairment through a carefully done 24 hour curriculum.
• To provide an environment that promotes and supports the development of independence, choice and self advocacy for the students. The world of a child with autism can be a confusing, perplexing and frightening place. One ‘golden rule’ is therefore to provide each student a regular, predictable, and structured learning environment. Helping the student to interpret their environment in ways that are meaningful for them, must reduce levels of stress and anxiety therefore optimizing learning opportunities.
• Significantly reduce the level of language used in the classroom and rely on the visual cues to help them understand what is required of them.
• All teaching areas are organized with clearly designated areas for group work, independent work, play, and individual teaching.
