Empowering Mentors: Te Poipoi Kaiako Workshops for Term 3

Supporting the next generation of educators is vital for the future of New Zealand classrooms. Tātai Aho Rau Core Education has confirmed that their regional workshops are returning for Term 3, providing essential space for professional growth and connection.

Tātai Aho Rau Core Education is hosting free professional development workshops across Aotearoa in Term 3 to support mentor and provisional teachers. Adobe Stock.

These sessions are designed specifically for Mentor teachers (Pou Tautoko), Provisional teachers, and Pia. The programme is flexible, meaning you can access any aspect of the support in any order, regardless of whether you have attended previous sessions.

While the workshops are free to attend and include catering, schools will need to manage their own travel and release costs.
