At Āpiti school we base our Āpiti Māori programme on the NZC and the needs of our students.

In our learning through our MASAM framework in 2018 which was initially started in 2016 we made an action plan. We identified our current capacity and knowledge to move forward.

At Āpiti School we seek to authentically implement learning through meaningful contexts.

Our key focus themes are:

• Ako

  • Theme 1 Practice in the classroom

  • Theme 2 Effective Māori cultural learning, pedagogy and curriculum for all learners
