At Sky Special School, our most valuable asset is our team—a group of individuals who are much more than just educators and caregivers. They are a family, united by a shared mission to empower and uplift children with special needs. This extraordinary team is driven by love, dedication, and a deep understanding of the challenges and potential of every child in our care.
Central to our team are the incredible mothers of children with special needs, who bring a unique perspective shaped by their personal journeys. These mothers infuse the school with their unwavering commitment, empathy, and profound insights into the developmental and emotional needs of the children. Their presence is a testament to the power of lived experience, as they work tirelessly not just for their own children but for all the students at the school. Many of these inspiring women are also members of Brundas Ananda Yoga, a women’s group that embraces the principles of joy, unity, and inner strength through yoga and meditation. This community fosters resilience and positivity, qualities that they bring into their work every day.
Our faculty and staff also include a dedicated blend of seasoned professionals and enthusiastic volunteers, each contributing their expertise and passion to create a nurturing and inclusive environment. From specialized therapists and teachers to volunteers who assist in daily activities, every member of the team plays a vital role in enriching the lives of our students.
The synergy between our permanent staff and the dynamic contributions of our volunteers enables us to offer a multifaceted approach to education and therapy. This collaborative spirit allows us to meet the unique needs of each child, combining academic learning with physical, emotional, and social development. Together, our team is committed to creating an environment where every child can thrive, grow, and reach their full potential, making Sky Special School a beacon of hope and transformation.
Teacher
Madhavi G. is a dedicated mother of two and a qualified educator with a B.Sc. and B.Ed.

Determined to help her daughter, Madhavi explored various therapies and treatments before discovering the value of specialized training. This inspired her to join Sky Special School two years ago to support her daughter and other children with similar needs.
At the school, she has embraced its nurturing, family-like environment and gained valuable insights into special education. Madhavi has seen remarkable progress in her daughter and continues to advocate for holistic approaches, including physiotherapy and Ayurveda, to support children’s overall development and well-being.
