Pre -School is the first place where a child experiences a structured and formal educational setting that has teachers and other children. The focus here is on developing independence in the children and academic skills come later. The classes help young children to learn according to their abilities and interests. Many curricular and co-curricular activities are conducted to ensure social, emotional, cognitive and physical development of the child.
In 2020-2021, PSU catered to the needs of 15 students in two sections- PSU BEGINNERS and PSU JUNIOR. Students were taught via virtual modes throughout the session. They learnt various Co-Curricular activities such as Yoga, Games, Dance, Rhymes, Tabla, Music, Audio Visual stories, art and Craft along with their academics and therapies like Sensory and Speech therapy Language and Communication. This ensures holistic development of the young child.
We have the facility of package programmes for those children who cannot take the daily therapies due to the distance and other factors. To cope with, we provide them with therapies for three to five consecutive days and home based strategies are provided to the parents as a part of the therapies.
