In short

Special Minds introduces vetted shadow teachers to families in Chandigarh. A shadow teacher supports your child one-to-one inside the school day, at the school's invitation, so they can follow the lesson and take part alongside their classmates. 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 Mohali, Panchkula, Manimajra, Zirakpur and Kharar, and across Chandigarh, 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 the CBSE schools most tricity families use, the ICSE schools of Chandigarh, and the Punjab and Haryana board schools of Mohali and Panchkula. 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.

WhatsApp us
Does the school in Chandigarh 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 Chandigarh do you cover?+

Mohali, Panchkula, Manimajra, Zirakpur, Kharar, New Chandigarh, 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 Chandigarh?+

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.
