Maitri School is open to admission of all students with Moderate to Severe Autism irrespective of race, religion or financial means, but with priority given to Singapore Citizens. The new school will offer 25 places per cohort for students aged 7-18 years old and have a total school capacity of 300 places. Maitri Programme will be guided by the Curriculum Framework for SPED Schools in the design and delivery of quality and holistic education for students. At the end of their education, students should be able to achieve the Living, Learning and Working outcomes in six core learning domains: academic, social-emotional, daily living, vocational, the arts, physical education and sports.

In the interim, Maitri Programme started on the 22 March 2021, with 7 and 8 years old students housed at the 6th floor of Metta HQ Building, adjoining Metta School in Simei, with a current maximum batch of 25 students and they will be transfer to the newly set up Maitri School once the building is ready at 20 Pasir Ris Street 51, Singapore 518902.
