How do autistic children study in Israel? We were able to find it out from those who care about the education of children with Down syndrome and autism. Alongside with the representatives from the Ministry of Education and Science we studied under the program “MASHAV” – Center for International Cooperation of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Israel.
We managed to see and get acquainted with the unique system of training, care, attentive communication and support of the children that do not feel themselves isolated from the society. This is the case when the diagnosis does not become a stigma and a shortcut, when children feel free in the surrounding and speak the same language with their peers.
“I was impressed by the visit to a school where autistic children are studying in Beit Khanin. Kids attend classes, are engage in creativity process, undergo a full cycle of socialization. They are happy and open, they are not afraid of people. When you look at these children, you are glad that they will never feel themselves undesirable in society. We would like to have a similar situation in our country and we are trying to provide our kids with a decent education on the basis of the Superheroes School of the “OHMATDYT” hospital”- the head of the Smart Heart with Art Yevheniia Smirnova.
We have already grabbed some useful lessons from the MASHAV and will try to implement them into the School. Just wait for the good news!
