CWSN stands for Children With Special Needs.

CWSN stands for Children With Special Needs — children who require additional or specialised support to learn alongside their peers, including children with disabilities. Indian schemes such as Samagra Shiksha and the Right to Education Act require schools to enrol and support CWSN in inclusive settings. The term overlaps closely with 'divyangjan' in everyday school use.

In Indian schools

Enrolling and supporting CWSN starts with capturing the right information on the student record and keeping it private. RaivatEdu holds that on one profile with custom fields and database-level access control, so sensitive details stay with the staff who need them.
