A place to learn and grow together

The school was founded in Mumbai in 1957 and has 61years of experience of working in the hearing disabilities space.

The Stephen School for the Deaf and Aphasic was founded in Mumbai in 1957 with a single teacher offering speech training for only a handful of deaf students. Under the management of The Montfort Society, the school has expanded to 12 classrooms serving 70 children annually and their families, providing a comprehensive special education for children with hearing impairment.  Targeted curriculum and speech training offer a way for hearing impaired children to participate in a hearing world and prepares them for the Secondary School Certificate (S.S.C) examination of Maharashtra State Board.

In 2015, The Stephen School started an integrated junior college catering for students with and without hearing impairment. Currently, there are 120 students enrolled in junior college. In 2016, with a focus on employability, the school partnered with a skill training organization to provide vocational training and employment opportunities to youth with hearing impairment. To this date, 400 youth have completed the training program and got into various jobs. 

The Stephen School envisions a future where hearing impairment ceases to restrict a child’s opportunity for success. With the focus on giving children the tools they need to overcome barriers created by their disability, they have started an early intervention centre in 2018.

We all celebrated festivals, played games, and had many interesting competitions. This helped me in building confidence, positive attitude and leadership skills . I thank my Stephen School for Deaf FAMILY for bringing a positive change in my life.
