Find information for Early Childhood Education students, including key dates, programme structures, professional practice expectations, and supporting forms.

We aim for our graduates to be confident, capable teacher practitioners who ensure strong relationships with learners and between theory and practice.

For example, a crucial element of teaching is student teachers’ capabilities to develop warm, reciprocal, and responsive relationships with children, together with effective professional relationships with teaching colleagues and with parents and whānau.

Student teachers will develop their capabilities in relation to nurturing and maintaining such relationships through critical examination of literature and putting what is learnt from theory into practice.
