A special educator informed The Goan that while the students study the same subject matter as other students, they can opt for modified question papers under the “Children With Special Needs” (CWSN) category.
An option is also given to them to drop some subjects and opt for other subjects which they could have a better aptitude for.
Their textbooks are the same as all other children, but the special educator teaches the subject matter in a more detailed manner.
CWSN who attend inclusive schools also answer their SSCE following the same system. Meanwhile, Guruprasad Pawaskar, chairman, Sanjay Centre for Special Education and Sheru Shirodkar, Member Secretary, Sanjay Centre for Special Education congratulated the students and teachers for putting in every effort and achieving 100% results.
