Impact of Effective Teaching Strategies for the Students with Learning Disabilities

Learning Disabilities (LD) constitute a heterogeneous group of neurodevelopmental conditions that affect core academic and cognitive skills such as reading, writing, reasoning, and information processing. In line with the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (RPWD) Act, 2016, Sustainable Development Goal 4, National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, and National Curriculum Framework for School Education (NCFSE) 2023, inclusive and learner-centered pedagogical practices have become a central concern in school education. The present study examines the impact of effective teaching strategies on the academic performance, engagement, behaviour, and learning outcomes of students with learning disabilities.

The study adopted a descriptive survey method. Data were collected from 40 Special Education Teachers (SETs) teaching at primary, secondary, and senior secondary levels in Delhi. A structured Google Form consisting of 16 items based on Likert scale responses, multiple-choice questions, and guided open-ended questions was administered during December 2024 to January 2025. The data were analysed using percentage-based descriptive statistics.
