Supporting Cambodia’s Growing Need for Special Education Through Private School Solutions

Cambodia is witnessing a growing awareness of the importance of special education. As more families seek support for children with learning and developmental challenges, the demand for high-quality, inclusive school environments continues to rise. Current estimates from the World Health Organization indicate that nearly 10% of children in Cambodia have some form of disability—highlighting a critical need for tailored educational services.

However, many public schools lack the trained professionals and specialized resources needed to support these students. While the Cambodian government is making strides to improve access, progress is gradual. This gap has opened opportunities for private institutions like OrbRom Center to step in and meet the growing demand with comprehensive, individualized support.

Why Private Schools Are Essential for Special Education in Cambodia

Private schools are playing a key role in advancing special education in Phnom Penh and beyond. These institutions offer several advantages that can make a significant difference in a child’s academic and emotional development.

Individualized Attention Through Smaller Classes

In a private school, smaller class sizes allow teachers to provide more personalized attention. This is particularly beneficial for children who may struggle in larger classrooms or need additional support.

At OrbRom Center, our one-on-one sessions are designed to help children build confidence and develop key academic and life skills. These 90-minute focused sessions allow our experienced educators to tailor instruction to the child’s exact needs, leading to faster and more sustainable progress.

Access to Essential Therapies

Many private schools offer access to vital services such as speech therapy, occupational therapy, and behavior intervention. These therapies are essential for addressing not only academic delays but also communication, motor coordination, and social-emotional development.

A Nurturing, Supportive Environment

Private school staff often have deeper training and more experience working with children who have diverse needs. This creates a more inclusive and understanding school culture that helps children feel safe, valued, and motivated to learn.
