Te Whakarōputanga Kaitiaki Kura o Aotearoa’s role is to lead and strengthen school governance. We are the only organisation in New Zealand whose sole focus is supporting and assisting school boards to achieve the very best educational outcomes for their students and communities.
Our advice and support services are highly regarded in the education sector and we deal with approximately 1800 queries from board members every month. So whether you’re new to your governance role, or you’re a ‘seasoned’ school board member, Te Whakarōputanga is here to support you!
We operate a centralised Advisory and Support Centre, which is staffed by advisors who can help provide immediate assistance for governance and employment matters, as well as directing you to guidance resources and learning opportunities.
The Advisory and Support Centre is your first port of call for assistance.
We also have a team of Regional Advisors, who work from our respective regions throughout New Zealand, providing a more personalised and in-depth service for complex and ongoing governance and employment matters.
All of our advisors have extensive governance and employment knowledge, and many have ‘real world experience’ from having served on a school board themselves.

We also provide you with free access to our suite of governance and employment resources.
Through our Te Whakarōputanga Resource Centre, you can access our templates and sample policies, register for live learning events, watch webinars and more.
