A group of under-training civil servants from the Civil Serviced Academy (40-Commons) visited the remedial school of the Foundation for Rehabilitation and Education of Slow Children (FRESH) to study the social welfare project as a part of their training.
Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Foundation Ashba Kamran made a detailed presentation on the FRESH and its flag-carrier platform Pakistan Association for Difficulties in Learning (PADIL), an awareness campaign for slow learners in the society. She said awareness about slow learners has become a national cause and large number of young students from across the country has joined PADIL to work for the slow learners.
According to her, the number of drop-outs from public and private schools is alarmingly on the rise. It is becoming difficult for young students to coop with mainstream education due to learning difficulties. Kamran said the problem of learning difficulties is becoming common due to Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD), Dyslexia and other mental incapacities.
