Learning Support is a critical part of the Te Mahau | Te Tai Raro (North) 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.

**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 collaborate closely with specialists from other disciplines. It enhances my own practice and thinking.”
