New Zealand · teachers and school leaders

Plan the lesson. Notice the learning. Prepare the next step.

Plan with The New Zealand Curriculum or Te Marautanga o Aotearoa, according to your school or kura’s pathway. Connect the learning areas or wāhanga ako with classroom activities, observations and formative assessment, then use those notes to prepare the next lesson.

Local context

Say which curriculum the school teaches.

Share the learning area or wāhanga ako, year level and teaching language used by your school or kura. A sample plan helps us connect classroom activities with observations and formative assessment.

  • Say whether the class follows the New Zealand Curriculum or Te Marautanga o Aotearoa.
  • Bring one week’s plan and the year level.

Your curriculum, your teaching practice

National curriculum, IB or Cambridge.

We use your school’s national curriculum, International Baccalaureate (IB) or Cambridge International programme as the reference for planning, teaching and assessment. The programme, level, subjects and syllabus edition are agreed during setup.

National pathway

The New Zealand Curriculum · Te Marautanga o Aotearoa

Ministry of Education · Te Tāhuhu o te Mātauranga. We use the national curriculum pathway and edition applicable to your school or kura: The New Zealand Curriculum or Te Marautanga o Aotearoa. Connect planning, learning areas or wāhanga ako, classroom observations and formative assessment. Confirm the teaching language and transition guidance for your year levels.

National curriculum reference

IB pathway

International Baccalaureate (IB)

Use the IB programme your school teaches: PYP, MYP, DP or CP. Connect inquiry, unit planning, classroom activities, reflection and formative assessment to the programme’s requirements.

IB programmes

Cambridge pathway

Cambridge International · IGCSE

Use the Cambridge programme and syllabus for your stage: Cambridge Primary, Lower Secondary, IGCSE, or International AS & A Level. Plan by subject and syllabus, keep assessment evidence and prepare the next teaching step.

Cambridge programmes and qualifications

The classroom routine

Prepare the learning. Notice the competency. Plan the next lesson.

Workspace brings lesson planning, attendance and formative evidence into one record. In a walkthrough, we explore that record against your curriculum and confirm the setup your school would need.

Prepare the week

Use the learning area or marau the school already teaches, and name the key competency the activity calls on.

Notice it in the room

Take the roll and keep a note of what learners did, not only the outcome at the end of the term.

Use it next lesson

Decide what to revisit before the next session.

Evidence from the lesson

One learning area is enough.

A walkthrough can follow one activity through the lesson and the follow-up. The school chooses it from its own curriculum. NCEA assessment stays with the school’s existing process.

Use the walkthrough to agree curriculum requirements, classroom setup and staff support before planning the first teaching cycle.

Implementation

One learning area and the curriculum it sits in.

  • Bring the curriculum document your teachers use this term, one sample lesson, and the language of the class.
  • Share your school or kura’s curriculum pathway and language of instruction to prepare the staff session.
  • Agree a staff practice session and a time to review the first teaching cycle.

Curriculum resources and questions

Planning your first step in New Zealand.

Which curriculum pathway should we use?

Start with the curriculum pathway used by your school or kura: The New Zealand Curriculum or Te Marautanga o Aotearoa. Share the year level, learning area or wāhanga ako, teaching language and a sample plan.

What should we bring to a walkthrough?

A current curriculum document, a sample lesson plan and a description of the assessment records your staff keep. Use anonymised examples. Include your teaching language, class numbers and available devices in the enquiry.

Can a network or education programme start a discussion?

Yes. Tell us the schools and levels involved, who will support the teachers and the planning or assessment routine you want to work on. We will agree the scope and a suitable first phase with you.
