Greetings and welcome to Team-Up, the New Zealand Ministry of Education programme for families and communities. This Team-Up booklet has information and advice to help you to find out about New Zealand’s education system. It also has ideas and tips on ways you can support and participate in your children’s learning. New Zealand has a strong tradition of respect and inclusiveness towards people of different religions and cultures. I believe it is important we promote unity, not division, and value all members of our communities and their contribution to our national identity. We hope you find the booklet a useful introduction to education for your children and that you are able to use it as a reference guide throughout your children’s early childhood education and school years.Getting involved in your children’s education will make a big difference to their future.
