Haryana, a role model for inclusive education
D.N.I.S. News Network – Haryana aims to start a model inclusive
school in each and every block in the state so that children with special
needs do not have to travel long distances to study. It has already set an
example for other states by including 28,445 children with special needs into
the Integrated Education Programme under the Sarva
Siksha Abhiyan.
The State has started Home Based
Education programmes to meet the learning requirements of the 31,907 children
identified so far. This programme is being implemented through model inclusive
schools, an example that is now being considered worth replicating. This initiative
has been documented in the Human Resource Development Ministry’s report on
Home Based Education practices, “Discovering New Paths in Inclusion”.
The model inclusive schools
already set up in Gurgaon, Panchkula,
Hisar and Rohtak have now
been extended to Sirsa, Yamunanagar,
