Well-supported long-term digital technology opportunity for 2022

Schools / kura have until mid-October to register to participate in a fully funded well-reviewed digital technology programme for socioeconomically disadvantaged school communities over the next three years.

Manaiakalani, meaning the hook from heaven, is a collective with a large pool of resources, some available in Te Reo Māori, device support, and can connect kura with a large network of support from all schools engaged in the programme with ongoing online support. 

Back in 2007, a community of learners, whānau and educators in the Auckland suburbs of Glen Innes, Pt England and Panmure (collectively known as Tāmaki) embarked on a project to raise student outcomes and build capacity and engagement through the combination of media and digital technologies and effective teaching practice.

Pou Whakaako Skye Stirling is happy to facilitate a zoom hui with the team at Manaiakalani so kaiako can dive into more detail about the programme and the needs of thier kura.

Email skye@kuraaiwi.nz to arrange an online hui.
