Phase two
During Phase 2 of the Joint Initiative, NZEI Te Riu Roa members and Ministry of Education staff focused on six core
areas to help "shape and stretch" Communities of Learning to ensure they
genuinely meet the needs of children.
NZEI's goals were to:
- grow opportunities for our support staff and early
childhood teacher members to be recognised and involved in Communities
of Learning,
- develop understanding about how Maori and Pasifika
children's success can be enhanced through Communities of Learning,
- ensure the alignment of proposed professional learning and
development with other changes in the sector, and
- recognise the importance of inclusive education
practices.
The reports of the six workstreams are here:
