Valteri School is meant for special support students whose school attendance cannot be arranged in the appropriate manner in their home municipalities.

Admission need assessment

Becoming Valteri School student always happens via support period. During this period, we conduct various assessments on the student's support needs, learning capabilities, as well as the special needs that are connected to their learning, rehabilitation and school attendance. If during the support period the adequate educational support measures cannot be arranged in the student’s home municipality, the student can be temporarily admitted as Valteri School student.

The municipality is responsible for applying

The municipality applies for a school place at Valteri School in cooperation with carers. The application can be submitted as an open application and it must include the special support decision as well as any possible extended compulsory education decisions. Student admission requires that a separate agreement with the municipality is made on the acquisition of assistance and transportation services.
