Do you know about Ako Panuku?
27 November 2009
Ako Panuku (to learn and teach to the very best of one’s abilities) is a support programme for Māori secondary teachers (of any curriculum area). Ako Panuku’s goal is to support Māori teachers in ways that enhance their professionalism; and acknowledge the critical contribution they make to education and to the achievement of Māori students. Ako Panuku supports Māori teachers to plan and develop their career pathways; participate in professional communities and professional learning; develop and access resources that support their work.
Look out for Ako Panuku’s Leadership and Management course for aspiring leaders and managers and those already in leadership and management positions. The course looks at further developing leadership and management skills, the theory and application of leadership and management for raising Māori student achievement.
