In short

Special Minds introduces vetted shadow teachers to families in Amritsar. A shadow teacher sits with your child inside the school day, at the school's invitation, and helps them follow the lesson, the routine and the classroom's expectations. Every candidate's qualifications are confirmed with the issuing institution, identity and work history checked, and at least two references spoken to, and every placement is reviewed at one week, thirty days and ninety days.

Families in Ranjit Avenue, Lawrence Road, Green Avenue, Basant Avenue and Majitha Road, and across Punjab, whose school has asked for a one-to-one support person in class, or has agreed to one after a conversation with the family. We work with Amritsar's CBSE schools, its Punjab School Education Board schools in Punjabi and English medium, and a smaller number of ICSE schools. Often the family already has a report from a developmental paediatrician or child psychologist; sometimes the school's concern comes first, and that is fine too.

Does the school in Amritsar have to agree first?+

Yes. A shadow teacher works inside the school at its invitation and to its inclusion policy. We speak to the inclusion coordinator, the principal's office or the class teacher, whoever the school names, before anyone is placed.

Which parts of Amritsar do you cover?+

Ranjit Avenue, Lawrence Road, Green Avenue, Basant Avenue, Majitha Road, Mall Road, and the neighbourhoods around them. We shortlist by the school's location, because a shadow teacher who cannot reach the school reliably every morning cannot do the job.

Will the shadow teacher speak our home language?+

English always, and Hindi or Punjabi where the candidate pool allows. Tell us on the brief which language your child is most at ease in.

How soon can a shadow teacher start in Amritsar?+

It depends on who is available near you. We look for a vetted professional who lives close enough to stay for the whole school year, and we tell you plainly how long that is likely to take before you commit to anything. Remedial tutoring can also begin online, usually within two to three weeks.

What does a shadow teacher not do?+

They do not diagnose, deliver therapy or replace the class teacher, and they do not do the child's work for them. They work to the plans set by your child's clinicians and the school, and they step back as your child needs them less.
