Clusters
Ako Panuku Clusters
Clusters are an important way to extend professional networks, gain collegial support, reduce workload, and strengthen teaching practice.
Ako Panuku encourages all kaiako to engage in a local or online cluster group.
We have established a number of teacher cluster groups across Aotearoa to cater for a wide range of professional support needs. If you are interested in joining an Ako Panuku cluster please contact the relevant cluster leader below directly or email akopanuku@haemata.co.nz.
Cluster Support for 2018
Applications for cluster support in 2018 are now open.
Any Ako Panuku member can apply - you just need Ako Panuku teachers from three or more schools/kura who want to work together in a cluster group either locally or online.
To apply for support in 2018, complete and submit the 2018 Cluster Application Form [DOCX, 642 KB].
