This website provides resources for student teachers completing their Professional Practice (sometimes called placements). This is where they spend time in schools and centres practising and observing teaching. We are excited and privileged to be working with all our kaiako tauira/student teachers, kaiako pou/associate/mentor teachers, and schools and centres, towards enhancing the learning, well-being, and achievement of all tamariki and ākonga of Aotearoa New Zealand.

Thank you for joining us in working to create excellent kaiako in our inspirational, challenging, and innovative initial teacher education programme.
