Teachers Conference

On the back of a successful STEM conference 2024, we are expanding to include more of our faculties and share insights around alignment of pathways.

We've received interest from non-STEM teachers, more specifically teachers who also engage in academic mentoring conversations as well as year level Deans. We know student engagement/attendance is most concerning for math and science. This conference is an opportunity to equip teachers with better stories around the importance of math and science, why it matters, and what it leads to.

Join us for an inspiring professional development opportunity to attend our Teachers Conference 2025.

Day 1 (26 Feb): Science, Engineering and Design, and Medicine and Health Sciences.
Day 2 (27 Feb): Business and Economics, Architecture, Arts and Education.

Hear about our study options and what that pathway looks like for your learners.

• Teachers have a better understanding of how the foundation skills being taught in school connects to the undergraduate programmes on offer at university (secondary-tertiary curriculum awareness and alignment)
• Discuss the importance of external exams as preparation for tertiary success through comprehensive NCEA data analysis
• Discuss the importance of specific subjects for particular pathways, enabling informed subject selection across secondary schools
• Strengthen and diversify school relationships
• Share about our outreach initiatives that secondary learners can access throughout their learning journey
