CORE Education has been appointed by the Ministry of Education to support New Zealand schools and kura to maximise the potential of ultra-fast broadband, the managed network and digital technologies to achieve better educational outcomes.

CORE has developed the e-Learning Planning Frameworks tools for English and Māori medium schools/kura. The tool is designed to support schools and individual teachers identify their e-capability and plan for the effective integration of digital technologies into learning and teaching.

CORE is contracted to manage and develop Enabling e-Learning, the Ministry of Education’s online ‘hub’ for ICT-related education resources and programmes. The hub consists of a website and a facilitated online community.

The Educational Positioning System (EPS) is a comprehensive, web-based, self-review tool for whole school development and was created jointly by CORE Education and Australian education consultant Dr Julia Atkin.

Grow Waitaha is a partnership between the MOE, iwi, providers, schools and their communities. CORE works alongside Evaluation Associates, Leadership Lab and Massey University on this project.

CORE has several contracts with the Ministry of Education providing whole-centre professional support and development to early childhood services. These programmes are aimed at increasing the quality of early childhood services. The SELO programme is only offered in targeted areas and focuses on responding to Ministry of Education requirements for strengthened practice, particularly with regards to priority learners.

The Commission For Financial Capability (CFFC) has contracted CORE to support two clusters of schools in the Auckland region, to realise their vision for “all learners having financial capability as part of their learning pathways at school”.

CORE is a key provider professional learning and development (PLD) funded by the Ministry of Education. Under this model PLD focuses on building equity and excellence through focusing on a small number of national priority areas. CfPLD must be delivered by facilitators who have been through a rigorous accreditation process established by the Ministry of Education. CORE has over 60 accredited facilitators delivering professional learning and development across English and Māori-medium settings.

CORE Education is working alongside the Manaiakalani Education Trust to provide facilitation in five clusters of schools around New Zealand. The programme is based on the pedagogy: Learn, Create, Share and quality teaching and learning.
