Meet our Curriculum Advisors - Senior Secondary
Our regionally-based Curriculum Advisors - Senior Secondary (formerly known as NCEA Implementation Facilitators or NIFs) support teachers to effectively implement the changes to strengthen NCEA.
Curriculum Advisors have deep knowledge and experience in teaching and learning. Alongside other curriculum and assessment experts across the country, our team of Curriculum Advisors support professional change within their area of expertise. They can:
- lead conversations about how mātauranga Māori can be reflected authentically in new teaching and learning programmes
- support teachers to design programmes of learning in NCEA that are inclusive of Pacific learners and contexts
- support teachers to unpack subject Learning Matrices and achievement standards with teachers in a school or kura
- work with teachers to design courses from the Learning Matrix
- support teachers to embed literacy and numeracy strategies within subject specific courses
- support teachers to use universal design for learning principles and design courses that are accessible and inclusive of all ākonga.
Curriculum Advisors - Senior Secondary can be accessed by contacting your regional Te Mahau office.
Our Curriculum Advisors are allocated to three takiwā across the motu.
What are takiwā?
Te Mahau is made up of our regional offices organised into three large groups across the motu:
Te Mahau also includes:
- Te Poutāhū (Curriculum Centre)
- Te Pae Aronui (Operations and Integration)
Te Mahau was established in 2021, in response to the review of Tomorrow’s Schools, which made it clear that we need more responsive, accessible and local support for our early learning services, schools and kura. Te Mahau means the ‘front porch of the whare’ and as its name suggests, it is accessible and visible.
