Te Aho o Te Kura Pounamu (Te Kura) is New Zealand’s largest state education provider, offering flexible distance learning from early childhood through to NCEA Level 3. Since 1922, we’ve supported learners of all ages, both across Aotearoa and overseas, guided by our philosophy ki te tī, ki te tā, ki te katoa – anywhere, anyone, at any time.
Our kaimahi are located across New Zealand, working in regional offices. They support ākonga to achieve their learning goals, demonstrating our values in every interaction: Manaaki (showing respect, generosity, and care), Whanaungatanga (building relationships and belonging), Tika (acting fairly and honestly), and Ākonga at the centre (guiding every decision we make).
