At Te Aho o Te Kura Pounamu (Te Kura), our ākonga are always at the centre of what we do. For more than a century, we’ve supported learners across Aotearoa – evolving from lessons once delivered on horseback to today’s future focused learning that can be done anywhere, anytime.

Ākonga at Te Kura choose subjects based on their passions and interests, accessing learning online supported by kaiako who guide, inspire, and drive engagement. Alongside this, kaiako provide pastoral care and connect with ākonga through regular huinga ako – online or face to face – where learners connect, receive guidance, and strengthen their sense of belonging.

• Facilitate regular huinga ako (online and face-to-face) to provide pastoral care, connection, and personalised learning.
• Provide constructive feedback and feedforward on ākonga learning.
• Collaborate with colleagues and whānau to create flexible, engaging learning experiences.
