PULWAMA, NOVEMBER 03: Deputy Commissioner (DC) Pulwama, Kuldeep Krishan Sidha, today flagged off a group of Children with Special Needs (CWSN) for a one-day exposure visit to the Islamic University of Science and Technology (IUST), Awantipora, under the
Inclusive Education component of Samagra Shiksha.
Prior to flagging off the group, the DC interacted with the children and encouraged them to actively engage in the educational and recreational activities planned for them. He emphasised the importance of inclusive education and providing equal opportunities to children with special needs to explore, learn and participate in various educational and social activities.
During the interaction, one of the children from the group requested for an electronic tablet, which was immediately provided by the DC on the spot.
The exposure visit is aimed at providing the children with opportunities beyond the classroom, broadening their learning experiences and providing them an opportunity to engage in and explore sports and recreational activities. Such initiatives also help promote confidence, social interaction and a sense of inclusion among children with special needs.
The initiative was organised by the Chief Education Officer, Pulwama, under Samagra Shiksha, as part of the ongoing efforts to strengthen inclusive education and ensure a supportive and enriching learning environment for every child.
