Te Puni Kōkiri and the Committee for Auckland have partnered to strengthen and enhance Auckland schools.

“We are excited to be working with the Committee for Auckland to strengthen the management and governance practices of Auckland schools with high Māori populations,” says Te Puni Kōkiri regional director Pauline Kingi CNZM.

The Committee for Auckland is a non-profit organisation founded in 2000, with the vision to make Auckland one of the world’s best cities to live and work in. The Committee oversees programmes that are beneficial to Auckland and “Building Better Schools” is one of their programmes.

The initiative builds a partnership between schools and reputable businesses to strengthen the schools, governance and management practices.
