What is the AADI program?
The focus and schedule of AADI program
The primary focus of the AADI program is individualized, flexible pace learning through small group instructions.
The key focus is on flexibility and dynamic learning. It consists of a series of small group intervention activities that pan out for 2.5 hours each day.
Parents can choose between the following options :
- thrice a week
- five times a week
These 2.5 hour will consist of customized inputs and interventions depending on the child’s needs. However, the focus will be on socialization and community connect.
