How to choose a remedial school

School-age children are accepted with the written consent of the parents and the conclusion of the psychological-medical-pedagogical commission (PMPC). There are a huge number of such schools in Moscow and the Moscow Region, located in different districts and districts of the capital.

Criterias of choice

The main thing to pay attention to in order to avoid mistakes when choosing the appropriate educational institution for your child is the selection criteria:

• location - it’s good if the school is within walking distance from home, but in a huge metropolis this option is unlikely, so you should choose the one that is located in your district, next to the metro, public transport stops, so that the baby clearly knows how to get there, and so that do not spend several hours a day on the road;
• type of - public (budgetary), where free educational services are provided, and private, the payment of which falls on the parents' shoulders;
• price - you need to know exactly how much tuition and other services cost in a paid school, it is desirable that the average price is adequate;
• Additional services - when choosing a school, it is appropriate to find out all the background information about additional services: are the conditions for living in a boarding school favorable, are there educators, how is extracurricular work carried out, what is included in the system of recreational activities;
• teachers - often, following the recommendations of friends, parents make a choice in favor of an experienced, responsive, talented teacher, so you should clarify information about teachers, their qualifications and personal qualities;
• reviews - it would not be superfluous to study the responses on websites and forums on the Internet in order to understand where the most favorable environment is, experienced teachers, where it is better to send the child to receive a compensatory education. If the school has its own website, it is advisable to familiarize yourself with the information, photos posted on it.

PMPK Councils

Usually, after passing the PMPK, specialists give advice to parents on which correctional institution it is better to send the child to, based on the severity and characteristics of the health disorder, in order to develop abilities to the maximum, compensate for mental and physical disabilities.

Personal visit

A personal visit and acquaintance with the management and teachers is necessary to ensure discipline, cleanliness, and care for children.

Important points when visiting:
