The Teaching Council of Aotearoa New Zealand is the professional body for teachers. We represent all teachers from early childhood education through to primary and secondary schooling in English and Māori medium settings. We’ll promote all that’s best about teaching – good practice, new ideas; inspirational leadership. We provide leadership and help strengthen the regulatory framework and disciplinary regime for teaching. We aim to boost the status of teaching, strengthening accountability and bringing consistently high standards across the education system.
