What will you learn?

We have gathered together three experienced teachers and leaders to share their insights and knowledge with us about how they enact their teaching roles in ways that reflect the foundational position of Te Tiriti. They will share their views on what Tiriti-based practice looks like and what they see as some of the barriers facing teachers in the quest for deeper understanding. The panelists will also share their perspectives on how teachers can progress their journeys towards authentic and comprehensive Tiriti- based practice.


Having a commitment to Te Tiriti o Waitangi is the first teaching standard in the New Zealand Standards for the teaching profession. It underpins the foundations of our code and responsibilities as teachers. YET this is frequently the most misunderstood and poorly implemented part of ECE teacher practice.

This purchase is for the recording only of Bridgit Williams and our panel of experienced ECE professionals who will discuss their own practice in relation to this standard, and share how they strongly demonstrate a commitment to Te Tiriti o Waitangi and work in partnership with whanau, hapu and iwi every day.

What others said about this webinar:

I really enjoyed gaining a deeper understanding of what it means and looks like to demonstrate a commitment to Te Tiriti O Waitangi partnership.
— ALICIA
Having validated the feelings I am experiencing on my own te reo journey. This webinar has given me the encouragement to reach out to my local kohanga reo and ask if I can visit and start making connections with my local community.
— KATHRYN
The idea that Te Tiriti is not just something we learn about, but something we live everyday in our teaching. I like that it focused on real partnerships with whānau, hapū, and iwi. It reminded me that relationships are at the centre of good practice.
