Maitai is a specialist centre catering for students with a wide range of special needs. Our student population is drawn from the wider Nelson region. Students at Maitai range in age from 5 to 21.
The main school is located on the banks of the Maitai River, close to the centre of the city.
To assist mainstream inclusion, satellite classes are located at Auckland Point and Victory Schools.
Our teaching and support staff are trained to work with students with a variety of learning, social, behavioural, and physical difficulties. Specialist therapy services are provided to meet specific needs.
Student programmes are individualised and based on extensive consultation with parents and professionals. Emphasis is placed on providing for communication, social, physical, and essential care needs, with National Curriculum goals included as appropriate.
