CURRICULUM -
2018 NEW SCHOOL STRUCTURE
Over the last two years, we have been researching, gathering feedback, consulting, trialing and completing our own inquiry to help shape and rebuild our curriculum to support the needs of our students. With a new curriculum comes a new school structure.
We have moved from a traditional model and established our own structure which spreads leadership and responsibility across our staff. It also makes more sense with our integrated learning approach and vertical house/whanau groups.
Here is a look of our new school structure.
