- Support provisionally certificated teachers to develop effective pāngarau programmes

- Develop effective systems and processes to support overall teacher judgments and moderation
- Provide guidance for kura and schools to engage whānau in pāngarau learning
Have you seen our Te Aka Matua Pāngarau App?
Are your students Kaupae 4 or 5 (stage 4 or 5) for pāngarau? This app helps tamariki to practice and consolidate their knowledge and skills at this level, in three Pāngarau curriculum areas.
They can play educational games across several zones of the motu (island) and complete 6 levels of Meka Matua (Basic Facts), Uara Tū (Place Value) and Tauira me te Pānga (Patterns and Relationships).
