Kia ora koutou,
Matariki recently provided encouragement to pause and think about how far we have come over the last 12 months, and to reflect and prepare ourselves for the year ahead. For me, it felt incredibly appropriate as we prepare to share with you a proposed structure for Te Pūkenga.
You may remember, in the last few weeks, we’ve shared that we will be consulting with you on this from 19 July to 16 August. With a little over a week to go, we’re currently finalising a few details and getting ready to present the proposal to you. We want to do this in a way that enables you to understand how Te Pūkenga will be structured and organised – and what this means for each of you.
I know you are all eager to receive this information. For many of you, your current role and duties remain essential to a successful transformation. Therefore, we propose little change for the vast majority of kaimahi (staff) with their daily duties. There is likely change with reporting lines (although not necessarily for many, their direct line manager) and all of us are on a journey to build our capability to genuinely give effect to the intention of the Reform of Vocational Education.
We also expect new roles to be created, providing opportunity for all current network kaimahi. We’ll share with you how you’ll be able to apply for those roles of interest that align to your expertise.
The creation of Te Pūkenga gives us the opportunity to re-think how we deliver vocational and applied education in Aotearoa New Zealand. That means looking at what works locally and considering how it might work at a national level, to reach more ākonga (learners) because of our size and scale.
As we move further into the new year, I encourage you to look ahead at this moment in time to be part of a significant shift for Aotearoa. I know the passion and dedication that exists in our network, and I believe the proposed structure will enable us all to be bolder in our aspiration for ākonga and their whānau, employers and communities.
Ngā mihi,
Stephen Town
Chief Executive
