National, 30th August’24 – SAI International Education Group, known for its commitment to holistic education, is proud to announce the integration of sign language classes into the regular language curriculum for the students of SAI Angan, one of India’s largest and most prestigious play schools. This notable step, launched in the current session, aligns with the mission to foster inclusivity and empathy among young learners by equipping them with skills and sensitivity. This initiative has significantly enhanced their listening abilities and deepened their sense of empathy, reinforcing the importance of understanding and communication in a diverse world.
Young students of SAI Angan, affectionately known as SAIoneers, have now embraced the opportunity to learn sign language and will master the basics of sign language with confidence and enthusiasm. They have already started sharing their newfound skills with their peers by making video content with sign language.
By incorporating nationally and internationally recognized sign languages into the curriculum, SAI International Education Group is committed to bridging communication gaps and nurturing a culture of inclusivity from an early age. This initiative empowers the students to connect with others in meaningful ways, fostering a sense of unity and understanding that transcends verbal communication.
Dr. Silpi Sahoo, Chairperson, of SAI International Education Group, shared, “Dr. Bijaya Kumar Sahoo has always focused on holistic education of children and through this initiative, we are following his vision. Nowadays, knowing sign language is incredibly valuable for many reasons, especially regarding enhancing communication, fostering inclusivity, and improving accessibility. This curriculum will enhance language development, improve vocabulary, and reduce frustration in early communication stages. This will not only help the kid to connect with the broader community in the future but also it will help them to build friendships and networks that might otherwise be limited by language barriers. We are extremely proud of our little SAIoneers for leading the way in promoting inclusivity. I am thrilled to see their enthusiasm to learn this new skill.”
SAI International Education Group believes that early exposure to different forms of communication is crucial in developing well-rounded, empathetic individuals. As the students continue to learn and grow, they will carry these valuable lessons with them, making a positive impact on the world around them.
