- The ability and willingness to adhere to the Public Service Standards of Integrity and Conduct.

**About our group and team | Matau ropu ake**:
At Te Tahuhu o te Matauranga, we work to provide services and support nationally, regionally, and locally to the education sector, and in some cases, directly to akonga and whanau. To better deliver on this, we are currently undergoing an organisational design change. The transition phase to improve the way we deliver our purpose will be complete in 2023.
