Educational

We give special educational Early Intervention Programme (E.I.P). This is meant to cater for each child’s immediate and unique learning needs and facilitate the child’s developmental milestone. However, before this is done, an assessment test is carried out on the child to diagnose his/her intellectual deficits and medical problems. Our in-house Educational psychologist and medical Doctors in the Down syndrome Association secretariat do this assessment at 109, Ogunlana Drive Surulere, Lagos. As soon as these educational and medical assessments have been done, the child’s medical needs will be ascertained and the modalities for treatment and therapy will be made known to the parents/guardian. Similarly, the result of the educational assessment will reveal the child’s strengths and weakness, and an individualized curriculum Programme is planned for the child; this Programme is unique in the sense that, it is tailored specifically towards the learning needs of each child as all children are not equal, each has his/her own learning needs.

The educational Programme curriculum covers the following areas

1) Literacy Development (Reading & Writing skills)
2) Numeracy skills (Numbers and Calculation)
3) Communication & Language (Speech development)
4) Social Development
5) Vocational skills
6) Perceptive skills
