ABOUT SPJ Sadhana School
SPJ Sadhana School revolves around special kids with as many as 27 kinds
of disabilities with varying levels of retardation from mild to profound. In fact
we are the only school in India where we educate those who are profoundly retarded.
How are our special kids made to feel extra special at SPJ Sadhana? They
are warmly accepted and loved in every way possible within the school. Our key bricklayers
are our wonderful devoted teachers to whom giving comes naturally and who nurture
encourage & inspire the students. They recognize the potential of each child & bring
it to the forefront.
The “Training of Teachers” as we call it, helps every teacher not to merely
follow a regulated curriculum, but to constantly evolve out-of-the-box strategies &
innovative ideas that are varied based on the ability of the student. This brings
out the holistic evolution of every child. The school has 2 distinct & special programs
devised to open up a world of opportunity of students one is a formative year’s
course & we also have 5 year polytechnic courses.
See the transformation with some examples.
Five years ago we had an army officer. He did not march into the school but came
in with deep concern & doubt carrying a special child in his arms. The child had
16 fits a day, a child with physical & mental disability with a metabolic disorder.
Today Sardar Raminder Singh runs a successful cyber cafe in Chandigarh & even drives
his own scooter adapted to his physical needs.
This is just one among hundreds of success stories. And this gives us the impetus
to take on more students, to change more lives, create more opportunities.
So many bricks of love have to be laid to build our dreams, take on more students,and open
up a whole new world for those who knock on our doors. It can be laid with your
support & care.....brick, by brick, by brick.
