Canterbury, New Zealand NZ Ministry of Education Full time

Te Tai Runga (South - Wellington and South Island), based in the Christchurch regional office
- Fixed term, full-time role through to end of January 2026
- Be a key part of our NCEA Change Programme across the Secondary-Tertiary education sector

He mea tārai e mātou te mātauranga kia rangatira ai, kia mana taurite ai ōna huanga
We work to shape an education system that delivers equitable and excellent outcomes
Our organisation is made up of talented and committed people around 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 our ākonga in our education system.
Te Tāhuhu o te Mātauranga recognises the partnership founded under Te Tiriti o Waitangi between Māori and the Crown. We are committed to having Te Tiriti o Waitangi at the forefront of our work for and with Māori students, their whānau, hapū and iwi.
Right now, we are making significant changes to how we deliver our purpose.
At the secondary school level, we want to ensure ākonga are prepared for modern life in Aotearoa New Zealand, whether they choose to go on to tertiary education, join the workforce, or do something else entirely.
That's why we are making changes to NCEA to make the qualification more accessible and robust, grant equal status to mātauranga Māori, provide clearer pathways to further education and work, and more.
This is a huge undertaking involving massive community and sector engagement, with effort and coordination from many teams within the Ministry, both at National Office and within takiwā and regions. It represents the largest change to secondary schooling since NCEA was introduced in the early 2000s and determines the trajectory of schooling in Aotearoa for years to come.
Mō tēnei tūranga | About this role
There are 30 NCEA Implementation Facilitators nationally, working in takiwā teams, based in regional offices. As a NCEA Implementation Facilitator, you will have a key sector engagement role, working directly with local schools and kura to support them as they implement the new NCEA. For this role, we are looking for someone who can specialise in working with kaiako and school leaders in the area of mātauranga Māori. This will involve building and supporting connections with rūnanga, imi and iwi, as well as community and other relevant organisations.
To be successful, NCEA Implementation Facilitators will need to have a strong curriculum capability and a specialised understanding of mātauranga Māori and pedagogies aligned with Te Ao Māori. A strong connection with Pacific knowledges, and pedagogies, as well as principles of inclusive and accessible learning design is also necessary.

- work collaboratively with Regional Leadership and Curriculum Leads, as well as the sector and its leaders to ensure consistent and well-aligned implementation of the refreshed NCEA in schools and kura across Aotearoa New Zealand.
- support teaching professionals to understand the new NCEA products and how they are best implemented into specific local contexts, thereby helping their learners develop the competencies they need for study, work, and life-long learning.
- ensure effective feedback loops from regional relationship stakeholders to National Office teams and back again.
