Supporting learners with specialised education and meaningful development.
Who We Are
Marietjie School for Learners with Special Educational Needs is a non-profit school dedicated to supporting learners who require specialised educational and developmental care.
We provide a structured and supportive environment where learners are encouraged to grow in confidence, develop practical life skills, and progress at their own pace. Our approach recognises that every learner is unique and deserves opportunities to learn, develop, and participate meaningfully in everyday life.
See the Ability, Not the Disability
At Marietjie School, we believe in recognising the strengths and potential of every learner.
Our focus is not on limitations, but on ability – supporting each learner to grow, develop independence, and achieve meaningful progress in a way that is appropriate to their individual needs.
Our Approach
Individualised Learning
Each learner is supported at their own level, with teaching adapted to suit their abilities and pace of development.
Functional Education
Learning is practical and meaningful, helping learners develop skills they can use in everyday life.
Building Independence
We focus on helping learners become more independent, confident, and capable in their daily activities.
Making a Difference
Every learner’s journey is unique. Through dedicated teaching and specialised support, Marietjie School continues to create opportunities for growth, development, and independence.
