Swabodhini literally means 'empowering self learning'.
True to the word, the philosophy of the school aims at empowering special children with knowledge and confidence to live independently to the maximum extent possible. This commitment also reflects clearly in the school's mission statement. |

Swabodhini is a school for special children tucked cozily in the serene neighbourhood of Thiruvanmiyur, in Chennai, India. The school was born out of deep passion to meet the special needs of 4 children; from its humble beginnings in 1989, the school has grown rapidly. Today, the school is committed to teach and train 60 children apart from imparting occupational therapy to another 40 children – a number that is growing. Although it is painful to see the number of differently able children increase, the positive side that the school sees is the fact that there is more awareness amongst parents to accept the difference in the abilities of these children and seek professional support. The school views every admission as an opportunity to strive and overcome all limitations by tapping on and drawing out every aspect of hidden potential and capabilities.
