• We are transparent and accountable to stakeholders and quality assurance frameworks we operate within.

The 4 dimensions of learner wellbeing include:

Taha Hinengaro (mental and emotional wellbeing) of our learners, as well as how learners communicate and think regardless of whether or not they experience mental illness or distress.

Taha Whānau (family wellbeing) is about who makes our learners feel like they belong, who learners care about, and who they share their life with. Whānau is about extended relationships – it’s not just learner’s immediate relatives, it’s their friends, hoamahi (colleagues), community, and the people they care about.

Taha Tinana (physical wellbeing) refers to a learner’s physical wellbeing.

Taha Wairua (spiritual well being): A learner’s spiritual essence is their life force – their mauri. This is who and what they are, where they have come from, and where they are going.
