TKPL, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Thomson Medical Pte Ltd, will start off with a learning centre that offers structured educational programmes based on evidence-based interventions that help children with learning difficulties. This is aimed at letting them learn more effectively and better participate and progress in the mainstream education environment, said the group.

The centre will be supported by psychologists, speech and language therapists, and trained teachers.
