about Triad Schools

Triad Schools is at its heart – a place where every child is made to feel welcome while giving them the tools needed to make their future a brighter place.

Triad is a school and therapy centre for children with challenges, we have a centre in Cowie’s Hill Park, Pelham Pietermaritzburg, and a residential centre in New Germany Pinetown since 2002. Started by Paola Reggiani in 2002, Triad has a reputation for never giving up on children regardless of what challenges they may face in their young lives.

Paola has 25 years experience in working with children who have challenges and  has worked with all kinds of children in different settings. Her unwavering passion and determination for treating children with Autism and other challenges is unmatched. One only needs to spend a few minutes with this amazing woman to understand the depth of her commitment to the children who attend her school.

Triad Schools continue to grow from strength to strength, with the never-ending flow of love and support from parents, facilitators, carers, educators and other professionals involved in Autism awareness, behavioural management, and early language development.

“Every child deserves a chance to shine regardless of the odds stacked against them”

WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT

What makes Triad Schools different, is our commitment to giving your child’s physical, emotional, and educational needs the attention it deserves.

We offer small classrooms with a staff ratio of 1:3, which allows us to focus on and develop each child’s skills at a pace suited to them. All students have individualised programs tailor-made for them by our certified program co-ordinators, who craft these lessons using their years of child developmental knowledge. Each program is carefully monitored by assessing a child’s development at each stage in the learning process, with certain areas being adjusted to better match their needs.

All our staff have high standards of accreditation in the field of children with challenges, therapies, and teaching methods. They are able adapt their teaching style, resources, and environment according to your child’s learning style.

We apply tried and tested teaching methods which promotes a learning environment where a child’s skills are broken down into manageable steps which eventually leads them to mastery. Our staff’s calm and patient manner of teaching allows your child to complete tasks at their own pace, with positive reinforcement given to them at each successful step.

At the heart of Triad Schools lies our love for all children, and the belief that there is no challenge too big or too small for us to tackle. From the second you walk into our school you are greeted by our friendly staff and happy children who are playing, learning and growing. We prefer to see our students as part of a family, and provide them the same amount of love and understanding which their parents do on a daily basis.

There is no better time to give your children the gift of an exceptional education which will benefit their lives for many years to come… Contact us today and experience the Triad Schools difference.

Meet Paola Reggiani, founder of Triad Schools

Paola has over 25 years’ experience working with children who have been diagnosed with Autism, Asperger Syndrome, Language and Global Developmental Delays, Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), Attention Deficit and Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD), Anxiety Disorders, Obsessive Compulsive Disorders (OCD), Visual Impairments, and other challenges.

She started Triad Schools in 2002 with an aim to break the stigma surrounding behavioural therapy in South Africa. Her past success stories in mainstreaming children (who were previously seen as “uneducable”) are evidence that multi-faceted centres are absolutely key to the growth and development of children with challenges.

Paola is a very warm, friendly individual who believes all children deserve a good quality of life, to be a part of their families and society. A good quality of education  is also vital as she believes each child has potential, they just need to be taught as they understand.
