**About our group and team | Mātau rōpū ake**

Learning Support is a critical part of the Te Mahau | Te Tai Runga Group in the Ministry. We ensure that children and young people with additional learning needs are supported to achieve their full potential through education. Our Learning Support specialists work closely with families, whānau, caregivers, schools and early childhood educators in English and Māori medium settings and other agencies to help maximise learning outcomes and promote social inclusion.

We have much to offer in our small community. Masterton is approximately 100 kilometres northeast of Wellington, and close to the picturesque rural townships of Carterton, Greytown and Featherston, which have charming boutiques shops and cafes, and Martinborough is home to several wineries. If you enjoy outdoor activities the Remutaka rail trail has a spectacular walking and mountain bike trail, and Queen Elizabeth Park located in the centre of Masterton is a tranquil place to visit. The coastline has much to offer for fishing, and water activities. Our team are known for their warm, supportive, and collegial way of working.

Our specialists tell us they value:

- “The ability to make a positive difference in the lives of children, young people and their whānau and contribute to system wide change is a huge plus”.
- “The Ministry offers a strong community of practice and the support of a large organisation, so I never feel isolated or alone”.
- “I really value the ability to work closely with specialists from other disciplines. It enhances my own practice and thinking”.
