Ko wai mātou | About Us
Te Aho o Te Kura Pounamu (Te Kura) is New Zealand’s largest school with a roll of up to 24,000 ākonga (students) at any point of time. We provide personalised and authentic learning programmes through distance education from early childhood to NCEA Level 3, including to young adult and adult learners.
This year we celebrate 100 years of educating more than 1.5 million young New Zealanders. Te Kura has been called on over the years to supplement learning for New Zealand children during major public health crises, from polio and influenza epidemics to the present COVID-19 pandemic, as well as providing support to ākonga after the Christchurch earthquakes.
Our ākonga are at the centre of all we do.
Our vision is to enable our ākonga to achieve their educational and personal goals, empowering them to become engaged and contributing members of their communities. Ki te tī, ki te tā, ki te katoa – Anytime, anywhere, anyone.
