Privileged to have received this copy of Panini Pedagogy by the author herself! Smt Rama Popli has been passionately working on this pedagogy for many years now. With support from the Rajya Sabha MP, Shri Mahesh Poddar we were able to adopt this pedagogy at Deepshikha, some years ago. This Mind Opening Technique is a wonderful tool that actually opens the child’s mind. LV Jaishree from SPASTN Chennai was quick to recognise its potential. Along with Deepshikha, SPASTN is the only special school to have adopted this pedagogy.

It’s pay day, once again!! We are thrilled to give out the remunerations to the adult students by the Director, Social Welfare, Ms Kiran Passi. We loved her interaction with the students and faculty! She took a keen interest in understanding the needs of the students with special needs.
She was quite taken up with the MOT of Panini Pedagogy that we have implemented at Deepshikha.

Inauguration of Meet Your Special Buddy!! Sahay DAV Public School!

Meet Your Special Buddy was created to promote inclusivity, friendship, and mutual respect among students. Deepshikha partners with schools across Ranchi to conduct Unified Sports as part of World Disability Week.

Unified Sports, an initiative of Special Olympics, brings together individuals with and without intellectual disabilities on the same team. Based on the belief that training and playing together fosters understanding, it encourages teamwork, builds empathy, and creates meaningful social inclusion.
