Our Pātaka Rauemi, is a digital storehouse, which is a cornerstone of our support system for schools. It’s designed to be a robust source of knowledge and resources.
The metaphor of the Pātaka is integral to understanding our approach. In te ao Māori, a Pātaka is a storehouse that safeguards valuable resources. In the same spirit, our Pātaka Rauemi preserves and shares educational treasures, ensuring they are accessible to those who seek them.
With Pātaka Rauemi, we’re not just providing resources; we’re nurturing a community of shared knowledge and continuous learning. It’s a place where wisdom is stored, shared, and celebrated.
Asynchronous Webinars:
We offer a suite of asynchronous webinars tailored for schools and kura that require minimal support. These webinars are crafted to be self-paced, allowing educators to engage with content that resonates with their schedule and needs.
Digital Resources:
Our digital resources are capable of reaching and supporting a wider, regional audience. They are the tools that empower schools to navigate the educational landscape with confidence.
Access and Selection:
Teachers and kaiako can access and select from a wealth of PLD support material. Our rauemi includes templates, plans, units of work, readings, focus activities, identification profiles, research, and a rich array of video material.
Video Material:
The video content will span webcasts, interviews, recordings, and exemplars of effective practice, providing a visual and practical guide to educators.
