They most often have high level of perceived stress owing to the challenges which affect their normal adjustment to the society and the process of education. Internationally and nationally policies to aid them integrate to the mainstream have being acknowledged. Education not just skill training but education focused on psychological coping skill are aptly called for. Following which each individual can live a fulfilling life. The paper uses secondary data to depict the existing government policies and studies done by other researchers in this area. It contends that a flexible education module focused not only education but an amalgamation of their coping capacity is a must.
