The Head Office provides educational services and advocacy for neurodiverse students in Taranaki.

We run two distinct programmes: The Head Office for students with advanced learning needs and Project D for students with Dyslexia. The TGC Trust (Taranaki Gifted Community trust) is a community of principals, teachers and parents who saw the need for not just academical challenges for our gifted children but also for creating the opportunity to socialise and learn with like minded peers.

Neurodiversity is the concept that differences in human brain function and behavior are natural variations rather than deficits, advocating that there is no single "correct" way for a brain to work. It embraces neurological differences - such as giftedness, dyslexia, autism and ADHD - as part of normal human diversity, focusing on strengths and fostering inclusion. ๐Ÿค—๐Ÿง

We are proud of what we are achieving which is supporting our students to become less anxious, more understood, settled and engaged by providing depth, pace, support and understanding to their specific learning needs while in amongst like minded peers. These fabulous neurodivergent learners are our future change makers - and with that knowledge we would like to celebrate each and every one of them and say '๐‡a๐ฉp๐ฒ ๐e๐ฎr๐จd๐ขv๐žr๐ฌi๐ญy W๐že๐ค' from The Head Office team! โœจ๐Ÿฅฐ

We are incredibly grateful to Methanex NZ. This fabulous company in Taranaki has shown their dedication to the people of Taranaki through a generous scholarship scheme.
We want to acknowledge the funding from Methanex NZ to The Head Office programmes which will refresh our aging technology, and also bolster a vital scholarship fund which goes straight back to support those students who benefit from inclusion in our programme where cost is a barrier.

Thank you Methanex NZ from the staff, students and the families that make up The Head Office community. We deeply appreciate your support ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ™Œ
