Placement of children: Child Guidance Movement


Placement of children

After proper classification of the children the Child guidance techniques are applied for their proper placement, guidance, therapy or education. The environment in which the child has to be admitted should, however, be commensurate with its needs, aptitudes and abilities.
The institutions for proper Placement or such children are as follows:-

                     i.            Parental Home
                   ii.            Foster home
                  iii.            Ordinary Day school
                 iv.            Ordinary boarding school
                   v.            Special boarding school
                 vi.            Special day school
                vii.            Vocational school
              viii.            Reformatory school
                 ix.            Child guidance clinic
                   x.            Hospital etc.
The therapeutic or educational techniques of the child guidance clinic may be profitably applied to the child, requiring guidance, when it is properly placed in an appropriate institution. For educational purposes, the child should be admitted in the appropriate class of a suitable instable institution, consistent with its IQ, its needs, aptitudes and abilities. The clinic or the Psychiatric Hospital is the best institution for guidance or therapy of the problem children. Other institutions may also provide necessary facilities for their therapy and education.
