Mt Richmond is a school dedicated to providing specialised, quality learning programmes to meet the unique, individual needs of our ākonga. We value the importance of “whakawhanaungatanga” and ongoing collaborative partnerships with our whānau to reach the best outcomes for all our ākonga.

Our dedicated team of teachers, therapists, learning assistants, social worker, healthcare assistant, and administration staff work together to ensure whānau feel welcomed and learners flourish.
We provide a Specialist Teacher Outreach Service supporting ORS-funded students in mainstream schools. We cater for students aged 5–21, all funded through the Ministry of Education’s Ongoing Resourcing Scheme (ORS). Our base school is in culturally rich Ōtāhuhu, with satellite classes at eight host schools – Flat Bush, Bairds Mainfreight School, Te Uho o Te Nikau, Rongomai, Ormiston Primary, Papatoetoe Intermediate, Ormiston Senior College and Sir Edmund Hilary Collegiate.
