Special Education

KSH is committed to developing the abilities of its students through the latest available educational tools and continuously monitors global advancements in this field. The educational services provided to students with disabilities at KSH’s centers aim to:

  • Enhance students’ academic skills.

  • Increase their awareness across various areas—whether in their environment or within the systems surrounding them.

  • Support each student in achieving the highest possible level of independence, encouraging self‑reliance according to their individual abilities, which are strengthened gradually over time.

Each student receives an individualized educational plan tailored to their capabilities and level of progress in learning and training. Their development is documented in a follow‑up record, and their performance is evaluated through an educational report sent to the parent or guardian.

An initial meeting is also held between the student, their family, and the multidisciplinary team to set and discuss the individualized educational plan, after which appropriate educational guidance is provided to the family.

In addition to these services, KSH’s centers offer continuous academic and educational support, along with innovative therapeutic, psychological, and rehabilitation programs based on recognized scientific principles.
