Academy of Excellence
Empowering through Activities
While many extracurricular classes are available for regular students, children with special needs often struggle to cope with fast-paced learning environments. To bridge this gap and support their physical, mental, and social development, the Academy of Excellence was established on 29th December 2015 in Vadodara.
The Academy provides inclusive, skill-based training for individuals with special needs of all age groups, whether or not they are enrolled in a school, and, at highly subsidized rates.

Music
Music therapy helps reduce maladaptive behaviour and reinforces positive behaviour. Art and craft therapy promotes self-expression, reduces stress and anxiety, and improves concentration and sitting tolerance. Participation in dance and sports competitions at district, state, and national-level provides these special individuals with opportunities to showcase their talents and build self-belief.
