Policies aren’t just rules on paper

They hold your centre’s memory, influence teaching practice, and shape organisational culture.

Presented By

Preety Sehgal

Workshop Duration

Approximately 90 minutes

Who is this workshop for?

ECE Managers and those responsible for policies

What will you learn?

Using practical examples, we’ll explore how reviewing just one policy can improve compliance, strengthen teaching, and clarify your centre’s identity. With significant regulatory changes since April 2026, self-review of policies is no longer optional... it’s essential.

 

What participants will gain:

  • Understand why policy reviews matter and how they influence quality within ECE services.
  • Explore the whakapapa of policies — where they originate and the responsibility leaders hold when reviewing them.
  • Learn how policies, processes, and practices connect to shape culture and outcomes for children.
  • Gain a clear and practical process for reviewing policies that goes beyond compliance and supports meaningful improvement.
  • Walk away with strategies to ensure policies actively guide practice, rather than simply sit in folders.
