Division of Education - Te Wānanga Toi Tangata
The University of Waikato Division of Education is committed to building teachers and educational leaders capacity around the world, and looks to work with institutions that share our values and outlook on education.
As the first New Zealand Teachers' College to merge with a University, the Division of Education has been a national leader in pre-service and in-service teacher education and educational research for many years. Over this time the Division of Education has developed an excellent international reputation built on its experience of undertaking collaborative and innovative research that has not only been strongly integrated into its teaching and professional learning programmes, but that has also had a major impact on educational policy in New Zealand and throughout the region.
The Division is committed to research-informed professional learning and is proud to host the Te Whai Toi Tangata Institute of Professional Learning. This uniquely positions Te Whai Toi Tangata to link directly with relevant qualifications for teachers, principals and educators.
