Regionally Allocated Professional Development across Aotearoa

Our Vision:
All ākonga and students are secure in their identities, cultures, and languages.
Our Capability & Approved Areas:
1. Cultural Capability
The local curriculum and marau ā-kura are truly responsive to the diverse needs of all ākonga, and developed and delivered in partnership with wider whānau, mana whenua and the community.
2. Assessment for Learning
Learning is enriched through inquiry and assessment practices that celebrate and build on ākonga and learner's strengths.
3. Digital Fluency
Teachers and kaiako can confidently and effectively use digital technologies, programmes, and devices to enhance teaching and learning
4. Local Curriculum Design
Significant learning is not left to chance and all ākonga are enabled to realise their aspirations and thrive in a changing world with their whānau and communities
We use a Whakatikatika Rakau (Theory of Improvement) Model:
-
We work with schools to gather and analyze data and collect voice to ensure we all understand what needs to change in order to improve outcomes for ākonga.
-
Co-construct a Whakatikatika Rakau (theory of change) that responds to the data.
-
We provide focused, practical, hands-on and interactive professional learning and development that is research based and inquiry-led to meet the needs identified by Schools/Kāhui Ako and Early Childhood Centres.
