Notification

3/96/AE/DE/2012-13

The Government of Goa is pleased to

introduce the following scheme:-

1. Short title and commencement.— (i) This

scheme shall be called “Scheme for Children

With Special Needs (2018)”.

(ii) This scheme shall come into effect from

the date of its publication in the Official

Gazette.

2. Introduction.— The State of Goa is

striving to achieve universalization of

Elementary Education and has ensured

nearly 100% coverage in terms of enrollment

of children. The scheme for education of

children with Special Needs has been

addressing the educational needs of children

with a range of disabilities under the schemes

in 2005 and revised in 2008. With the passage

of time, the policy of Inclusive Education, and

coming into existence of the Right to

Education Act (2009), this scheme requires

review to bridge the various gaps that

have been identified in its scope and

implementation. This new scheme shall

replace the existing “Revised Scheme for

Education of Children with Special Needs”

and will allow more comprehensive and

Suggestions are welcomed on e-mail: dir–[email protected]

SERIES I No. 39

27TH DECEMBER, 2018

2328

robust approach to meet the educational

needs of children with disabilities in Goa.

3. Aims and Objectives.— The main

objective of the scheme is to provide

opportunities to children with special needs

studying in special schools and regular

schools.

These students may have one or more of

the following disabilities:

(i) Intellectual disability

(ii) Slow learners

(iii) Specific Learning Disability

(iv) Autism Spectrum Disorders

(v) Hearing impairment

(vi) Loco-motor and neuro-motor disability

including cerebral palsy, muscular

dystrophy, spina bifida, polio and

accident cases

(vii) Visual impairment

(viii) Multiple Disability, Deaf Blindness

(ix) Mental illness

(x) Any other disability as per declaration

by Director of Education under this

scheme.

Hereinafter, the term ‘school/s’ will include

all regular schools imparting education to

CwSN in Elementary, Secondary and Higher

Secondary Schools and special schools

educating children with special needs. The

term ‘intellectual disability’ has been used in

place of the pejorative and outdated term

‘mental retardation’.

The Scheme for Education of Students with

Special Needs is intended to provide a better

educational environment for such children by

providing them Individual Assistance and also

by awarding financial grants to regular

schools practicing inclusive education and

special schools, as an incentive and for

upgrading and enhancing educational

facilities for students with special needs.

The Individual Assistance to students is

meant to assist the families of such children

and to remove any financial hardship to

provide education that they face on account

of the disability in their children.

The Grant Component is meant for

vocational training, counseling for parents

and

children,

early

detection

and

identification, intervention, formal and

functional assessment by specialized

agencies, building of necessary infrastructure

in regular schools providing inclusive

education and special schools, removal of

architectural barriers, development of

resource rooms, development of parent

support groups, production and purchase of

aids and appliances as well as teaching

learning materials.

CwSN may be admitted into regular schools

or special schools as per the choice of their

parents. If CwSN are absorbed and retained

within the regular school system, such an

act will help boost their morale, and be

beneficial to the overall development of their

personalities. In addition this will help in an

attitudinal change in students and staff in the

regular schools. This trend has to be strongly

encouraged. Early intervention is crucial as

it is well known that the effects of disability

can be lessened greatly if treatment,

education and training are started as soon

as possible. Special Schools and Resource

Rooms may avail the centre sector scheme of

‘Financial Assistance for Skill Training of

Persons with Disabilities’ for effective

implementation of Vocational Education.

4. Components of the Scheme.— Keeping

in view the above aims and objectives, the

Scheme has two allied components. The two

components are as follows:

(i) Assistance to the child with special

needs directly or through the school.

(ii) Assistance to the institutions running

regular schools providing inclusive

education and Special Schools for children

with disabilities.

1. Implementing Agency.— The scheme

will be implemented by the Directorate of
