Every child is unique and not everyone can adapt to a standardized system of education. If a child has special needs, we need to be more aware of how the current system of education is helping him thrive. The educational philosophies of a school, and its practices, have to align with parenting beliefs and child's personality. Some children thrive in a competitive set-up while others tend to go into a shell. Depending on his needs, decide on the kind of school that is best suited for him.
