At Tomorrow Vijana, we believe that every child deserves the opportunity to learn and reach their full potential. That's why we're dedicated to providing inclusive education programs for children with impairments in the Rwamanja Refugee Settlement.
Our inclusive education program aims to identify, assess, and support children with impairments so that they can successfully participate in mainstream education. We work with parents to provide guidance and support, and we train teachers to create a more inclusive learning environment for all students.
Identifying and Assessing Children with Impairments
The first step in our inclusive education program is to identify and assess children with impairments. We work with parents, community leaders, and healthcare providers to identify children who may be in need of additional support. Once we've identified a child, we conduct a comprehensive assessment to determine their needs and strengths.
Supporting Parents and Children
We know that parents play a vital role in their child's education. That's why we provide parents with coaching and support to help them understand their child's impairment and how to best support them at home and in school. We also offer workshops and support groups for parents to connect with each other and share experiences.
Training Teachers for Inclusive Education
We believe that teachers play a key role in creating an inclusive learning environment for all students. That's why we provide teachers with training on different conditions such as epilepsy, Down syndrome, autism, and cerebral palsy. This training helps teachers to understand the needs of students with impairments and how to best support them in the classroom.
Referrals to Primary Schools
Once we've identified and assessed a child, we refer them to a primary school for continued learning. We work with the school to ensure that they are prepared to support the child's needs. We also provide ongoing support to the child and their family as they transition into mainstream education.
Our Commitment to Inclusive Education
At Tomorrow Vijana, we are committed to providing inclusive education programs that empower children with impairments to reach their full potential. We believe that every child deserves the opportunity to learn and thrive, and we are dedicated to making that happen.
