Impairment leads to functional limitations and functional limitations leads to disability.

The aim of this paper was to compare the mean academic achievement scores of Pre and Post-tests. Experimental method was adopted and the data were collected by means of an academic achievement test based on language and elementary mathematics and attitude scale.
