The Special Needs Schools Project for Kuwait will be a comprehensive campus serving a broad mix of special needs students, including:
- Autism
- Down Syndrome Physically Handicapped
- Mentally Handicapped
- Deaf Students
- Blind Students
From an educational and facility design perspective, this combination of exceptionalities on the same site offers a unique opportunity to comprehensively address the special differences required to serve each different student along with the opportunity to benefit by clustering common educational programs in a fashion that will link the common element of learning that also exist between all exceptional students.
Planning, design and tender Phase services on the Project for Stage 1 will be provided by the Consultant Team (LWI/GC) over a two year period. Stage 2 of the Project will involve Construction Supervision.
