The Graduate School taught me to become the teacher I wish I'd had.
We teach you to teach
Teacher Training For Graduates
NZGSE accepts people for teacher training who already have a degree. Graduates have already shown that they know how to take responsibility for their own learning. Our teacher intern programmes follow adult learning principles and make use of the teacher interns' maturity and self-motivation.
And most importantly, a person who finishes an NZGSE teacher training programme, knows how to teach well.
School Improvement Services
The rate of change in education is a major challenge for teachers in their jobs. NZGSE offers a range of school improvement services based around NZGSE’s 8People model of teacher practice. They include professional learning and development courses, training of mentors, appraisals of teachers and principals, school reviews and international consultancy. These services are designed to help trained teachers and school leaders cope with change and be highly effective practitioners.
