The website includes content across Te Whāriki, Te Marautanga o Aotearoa and The New Zealand Curriculum. In future it will be expanded to include resources for Te Whāriki a Te Kōhanga Reo. Tāhūrangi is also open for whānau and caregivers to access special resources they can use to help ākonga with learning.

The aim of the platform is to make access to quality teaching resources easier and more streamlined by collating content from different sites. It’s designed to enable efficient sourcing, downloading, organising and use of “quality resources and teaching materials”.
Features include bilingual search functions and filters to narrow results.
Educators can log-on using their Education Sector logon which enables access to personalised features like organising and saving functions to create a collection of resources. Users can also share these to other profiles in Tāhūrangi.
In future, all Ministry of Education curriculum content, resources and materials will be uploaded onto Tāhūrangi, which will be monitored and updated regularly.
Currently, content available on Tāhūrangi may be limited as content is still being moved to the site. As it is being moved, content is reviewed to ensure its relevance and usefulness. Minor issues are also being fixed in the process.
Eventually, Tāhūrangi will completely replace Te Kete Ipurangi, Kauwhata Reo and Te Whāriki online. As Tāhūrangi is being updated changes will be made to existing sites. Current users of TKI, Kauwhata Reo and Te Whāriki online will be notified before changes are made to the existing site, to enable a smooth transition to Tāhūrangi.
Planned changes to existing sites include:
Educators may notice they are redirected to Tāhūrangi as content is moved from existing sites.
The platform was gifted its name in 2022 by Dr Wayne Ngata. Its whakapap prelates to Tāhū, the central support that runs along the length of a wharenui. Rangi refers to the sky, the atua who takes care of the sky and is associated with knowledge.
