The Prime Minister’s Education Excellence Awards shine a light on teaching best practice by schools, kura and early learning services across Aotearoa. Teaching that benefits children and young people, whānau and entire communities. Teaching that changes us all.
Share your team’s best practice.
Ko ngā Tohu Kairangi Mātauranga a te Pirimia he whakamāramatanga o ngā mahi rangatira ā ngā kura auraki, ngā kura kaupapa Māori, ngā kōhanga reo, me ngā wāhi ako puta noa i Aotearoa. Ko ngā whakaakoranga e whai painga ana ki ngā tamariki me ngā taiohi, ki ngā whānau, me ngā hapori katoa hoki. Ko ngā whakaakoranga whakaharahara.
