Orthogenic School
An Orthogenic School is a specialized educational institution designed to support children with emotional, behavioral, or developmental challenges. These schools focus on creating a nurturing environment that promotes social, emotional, and academic growth. The curriculum often includes therapeutic interventions alongside traditional education to address the unique needs of each student.
Founded by Dr. Anna Freud and others, the concept emphasizes individualized attention and a holistic approach to learning. Staff members typically include educators, therapists, and counselors who work collaboratively to help students develop coping skills and improve their overall well-being.
