RAINBOW SCHOOLS

Since 1999 Arvinder, Sandeep and Gurleen have visited centres in India which support disabled and orphaned children, widows and the elderly.

Some of the centres were well run and resourced, others were not good at all. Other than providing food, shelter and clothing they were not meeting the needs of many and instead of encouraging independence, were making them even more dependent.

Many lacked the necessary knowledge and skills that were needed to meet the needs of special needs children.

Most kept special needs children and adults away from society, many not seeing or knowing what was outside their four walls.

Not ONE had any integration or inclusive education.
Not ONE saw a need for a more HOLISTIC approach.

After 7 years of training teachers and parents, holding seminars, workshops, demonstrations on the use of key resources, it was clear that Northern India needed to see and experience what we in the West take for granted...
A HOLISTIC, IINCLUSIVE and fully INTEGRATED way of supporting the most vulnerable people in society.

It was then the idea of a RAINBOW SCHOOL was born.

One which will empower, educate and enable all, including the wider community.
A shining example of what could be and to traiblazer a new way forward that includes rather than excludes vulnerable people.
One that will inspire politicians and society to WANT to change the established educational system so that all government schools could be modelled on the RAINBOW SCHOOL way.
