Disabled students | Meerhof School | Hartebeespoort, NW Province
In 1944 school was still held in the Meerhof Children’s Hospital for chronically ill and severely disabled children. There were no school buildings and classes were held in the hospital wards.
School buildings were later erected, and in 1969 the facilities were transferred from the Provincial Hospital Department to the Department of National Education.Today Meerhof School offers specialized education for multi-disabled learners.
A multi disciplinary team works with the parents to develop the skills of each student. Their speech therapists, physio-, and occupational therapists as well as remedial teachers see learners on a group as well as individual basis.
Therapists also assist in the preparation for, and rehabilitation after operations etc.
