The facility will cater to children with varying learning and developmental needs, ensuring that every child in Region Seven has access to a supportive and tailored educational environment.
Education officials at the commissioning ceremony described the project as a major investment in equality and opportunity, noting that the school will be staffed with trained teachers and equipped with specialized resources to help students thrive.
Parents and community leaders welcomed the move, calling it a life-changing development that gives hope to families who previously struggled to access special needs education in the hinterland.
