Multiple Disabilties

Mainstream Education

Some children diagnosed with multiple disabilities can attend mainstream schools (from primary right up to tertiary level), so long as the types of disability do not affect his/her, motor, cognitive and learning abilities, such as mild hearing impairment with physical disability. However, such conditions are rare. If your child belongs to this category, please contact the following for suitable school in your area that can cater to his/her conditions.
