Dear All: Retina India Karnataka will have its fourth networking meeting on April 3, 2010 Saturday. The topic of discussion will be around children with low vision and visual impairment. The children are often left out of the mainstream system or find it extremely harder to find themselves accommodated in the schooling system. The nature of their disability is such that it will be impossible to send them to special schools. This meeting would examine the problem and come out with a document that would provide a guideline for parents on what to do when schools are hostile to their child and how to plan the education for the child.
We do not have a facilitator this time around, but would like to brainstorm the subject and reate this document. Parents with school/college going children, school administrators, teachers and educators are invited to provide their valuable suggestions and ccontribute to our initiative. Details of the meeting is given below: Venue: Centre for Internet and Society No. D2, 3rd Floor, Sheriff Chambers, 14, Cunningham Road, Bangalore - 560052 Time: 2 pmm to 5 pm, Saturday April 3.
