Students with exceptional needs might benefit greatly from learning useful life skills in the classroom. It is hoped that they would be less reliant on others and more able to support themselves thanks to this assistance. The prime objectives are -1) to know the necessity of developing the general life skill (Personal and Social) among visually impaired students. 2) To ascertain the techniques of developing general life skill (Personal and Social) among visually impaired students. 3) To know the necessity of developing the special life skill (Academic and Vocational) among visually impaired students. 4) To ascertain the techniques of developing special life skill (Academic and Vocational) among visually impaired students.An in-depth qualitative method was used for this investigation. The research in this article relies entirely on previously collected secondary data. Theses, periodicals, newspapers, magazines, books, and the like all fall under the category of secondary sources. The programme focuses on acquiring the abilities necessary to create tangible, life-improving items. Visually challenged pupils may enjoy perceptual, appreciating, and creative experiences by mastering the required abilities. Given their circumstances, the kinds of life skills that are most appropriate to cultivate include broad and specialized ones.
