LUCKNOW: There was a 17.36% rise in enrolment of visually challenged
children in schools between 2002 and 2009, NCERT's eighth all-India
school education survey has revealed.
.
.
With 40,635 students, Maharashtra had the highest number of visually
challenged students in schools, followed by the country's most
literate state Kerala with 38,230 students.
.
.
The survey revealed that visually impaired accounted for 29.16% of the
differently abled students in the country. There were 2.5 lakh
visually challenged students among 8.35 lakh differently-abled.
.
.
Also, there were 25% students with orthopaedic (locomotor) disability,
followed by intellectual impairment gripping 22.35% school students.
Around 14% students were hearing impaired, 4.40% had multiple
impairment and 4.77% other disabilities.
.
.
The survey shows that in 2002, there were 2.07 lakh students with
visual impairment in schools.
.
.
From 2002 to 2009, the number of visually challenged children going to
school increased by 36,031. Whereas, hearing, orthopaedic and
intellectual impairments came down by 3.98%, 68.05% and 15.59%.
.
.
The reasons for a significant increase in visually challenged students
needs further investigation, Y Sreekanth, who heads NCERT's
educational survey division, said.
.
.
"Increased health check-ups in schools could be one of the reasons for
high number of students with visual impairment,'' he added.
.
.
Likewise, the drastic decrease in orthopaedic impairment, said
Sreekanth, could be due to the pulse polio programme.
.
.
After Maharashtra and Kerala, West Bengal had 27,386 visually-impaired
kids. Gujarat and Karnataka came next with 23,637 and 17,358 school
children with visual impairment.
.
.
The survey regarding schooling facilities for children with
disabilities revealed that out of a total 12,99,902 schools in the
country, only 2,74,445 (21.11%) adhere to inclusive education for
disabled children.
