About this Event
Te Mātaiaho acknowledges the nation’s growing diversity with a call to leadership to bring alive communities rich whakapapa and history of knowledge, traditions, and cultures.
This workshop is critical for school leaders in Tāmaki Mākaurau who cater for a community that is made up of 42% of people who were born overseas.
Join Cognition Education in a half-day workshop to explore how to develop, embed, and sustain a local curriculum that weaves together the shared vision and aspirations of diverse communities in a bicultural urban educational context.
Sessions will explore:
- Weaving together knowledge, skills, and dispositions in the curriculum
- Weaving people, history, and culture in education
- Refreshed curriculum in a bicultural and diverse urban setting
We welcome leaders from Auckland Primary, Intermediate and Secondary schools to join us as we showcase outcomes and success stories of local curriculum from across the region.
Come and meet our keynote speakers, and our team of consultants. Speak to them in person to understand their expertise and experience to support you on your PLD journey.
