from Breakfast with Ryan Huang, Emaad Akhtar and Audrey Siek · host MONEY FM 89.3

For children with special educational needs, choosing the right school environment is one of the most important decisions a family can make. While some students thrive in mainstream classrooms, others may benefit from more specialised support. As Singapore continues to expand pathways for inclusive education, how should parents weigh the different options available and what factors matter most when determining the best fit for each child? Scarlet Leong, Senior Specialist Psychologist at the Dyslexia Association of Singapore, and Vivi Lee, whose son Marcus transitioned from a mainstream school to Pathlight School joins Let's Talk, Singapore to discuss how different school environments support different needs and what the right fit look like for each child. Join Neil Humphreys & Audrey Siek - LIVE every Tuesday & Thursday at 7.20am for We Are Family!  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
