Teach NZ

Every single day, teams in schools and early learning services across the country work together to create brighter futures for our children and young people.

And every Matariki, the Prime Minister’s Education Excellence Awards recognise and celebrate their outstanding achievements at a prestigious awards ceremony.

The finalists were recently announced for the 2018 Awards, and schools or early learning services from your region could be among them. You can catch up on the last few years’ finalists and winners and find out more about what this year’s finalists achieved on our website.
