We work to shape an education system that delivers equitable and excellent outcomes
At Te Tāhuhu o te Mātauranga | Ministry of Education, we work to provide services and support nationally, regionally, and locally to the education sector, and in some cases, directly to ākonga, learners and whānau.
We help shape the policies, settings, and performance of the education system for early learning, schooling, and tertiary. We do this by building relationships and understanding the needs of those who receive our services.
We are making significant changes to how we deliver our mahi by
- taking practical action to give effect to Te Tiriti o Waitangi
- giving priority to regional and local voice
- delivering greater responsiveness, accessibility and integrated services and support
- improving feedback loops and information flows

Our organisation is made up of talented and committed people across Aotearoa from a wide range of backgrounds and cultures. While we work in different groups and on different things, we all strive, every day, to make the biggest difference we can for every child, young person, and adult student in our education system.
