Hi Geetha, Why so? Any specific reason? Is Rakkum a special school or a general school? I am little hesitant to live her at LFC Chennai since there are many girls from there without proper mobility. So any other school in south that you can think of? Many schools are pretty bad in enhancing students with English skills.

If the child's parents decide on a special school, please ensure that they thoroughly check it out before admitting the child there. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Subramani L" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <accessindia@accessindia.org.in> Sent: Tuesday, January 23, 2007 9:43 AM Subject: Re: [AI] Seeking a suggestion Are you looking for special school or a mainstream school? Considering the child's age, it will be ideal to start with a special school, where she would get to learn skills like Braille, mobility etc at a very early age. If Chennai can be considered, the girl can be put in Little Flower Convent, which does a good job in primary education for the blind. Or Rakkum School in Bangalore, which I heard, is equally good.

Rather I am looking for a workable suggestion and in fact a practical suggestion. Like the one by Rakesh.

In my opinion parental involvement would be all the more important in the case when the child is disabled. CBSE is a good choice and most towns do have a CBSE school. Good schools are also there in a state board school. It would be a good idea to check out which school provides fascilities and equal opportunity to disabled students. It would be better to check out with NGO's and meet up with some parents of disabled children to get a first hand account.
