Early intervention at Nishtha Special School focuses on assisting children in learning the necessary skills that typically develop during the first three years of life, such as:


  • Physical (reaching, rolling, crawling, and walking)
  • Cognitive (thinking, learning, solving problems)
  • Communication (talking, listening, understanding)
  • Social/emotional (playing, feeling secure and happy)
  • Self-help (eating, dressing)

Early intervention at our school can help children learn many vital skills and catch-up in their development phase.
