“…The National Rural Health Mission of India started Rashtriya Bal Swasthya Karyakram (RBSK) to identify and intervene in congenital defects, disabilities, disorders, and diseases in school children. [ 23 , 24 ] Training teachers in identifying NDD in preschool and primary school children would assist the RBSK team in identifying intervention targets and managing the unique needs of these children. Studies on the role of teachers in assisting the identification of NDD are sparse in this part of the country.…”

Objective: Neurodevelopmental disorders NDD are neurologic processing problems that interfere with learning in children. Primary and preschool teachers who are essential links in public health reach out to such children do not receive any formal training to identify these disorders. Hence, a primary and preschool level intervention addressing the issue is proposed. Materials and Methods: Primary and preschool teachers of government and government-aided schools and Anganwadi/preschools in the Model Rural Health Research Unit Tirunelveli field practice area will be assigned into two groups. The training module will be developed and validated using neurodevelopmental screening tool (NDST). Before identifying the students using the NDST, the teachers in Group A will get training using the module. Group B is the control group, in which untrained teachers administer the NDST to the children and then will be trained. Neurologists will assess the same children over 1 year. Results: The effectiveness of teacher training for the early detection of children with NDD will be assessed. Thus, the validity of the screening for NDD by the teachers will be estimated. Conclusion: If successful, the module can be incorporated into the Rashtriya Bal Swasthya Karyakram program of India for the early identification of children with NDD.
