Special Needs Schools for Children, Teenagers and Adults in Singapore

Below is an extensive list of schools in Singapore which offer programs for children with a developmental challenge of some kind.  One advantage of this data base is that it has been organized according to the type of challenge and age group catered to. It includes the following kinds of handicap: Attention deficit hyperactivity (ADHD, ADD), Autism, Asperger’s syndrome, Dyslexia, learning disability, Hearing impairment, Intellectual delay/disability specifically for mild or moderate delay, Multiple impairment, Visual impairment.

Not only does this list provide a data base of resource schools for a wide range of special needs children but it also includes the complete names, postal addresses, websites and telephone numbers of these schools.  This enables the reader to easily contact the schools to make appointments.
 
The data for this list was collected by Jennifer Sunderland who works with special needs children. Although every effort was made to make the list as complete as possible, there may be some omissions.  If you happen to know of any schools not mentioned here please let us know by dropping a line to Psychology Matters Asia.  Your cooperation will help parents in the Singapore area obtain the optimal educational setting for their child with special needs.  Also if any readers in other parts of Asia have similar lists of special needs schools in their city, Psychology Matters Asia would be most happy to hear from you and publish your list.
