Rauhuia | Leadership Space
Rauhuia is a leadership space for all, grounded in Te Tiriti and ngā uara (the values of the teaching profession): whakamana, manaakitanga, pono, whanaungatanga.
An introduction to Rauhuia | Leadership Space
Ko te Rauhuia he whakawātea i te ara ki ngā kaiako katoa, ahakoa te tūranga, ahakoa te horopaki whakaako ki te whakapakari i ōna pūmanawa hautū, kia tino eke ngā tamariki katoa o Aotearoa ki ngā taumata mātauranga kounga tiketike, i runga i te mahi pai o ngā kaihautū o tētahi tira kaiako matatau ā-ahurea, tūhono ki te ao.
Rauhuia enables every teacher, regardless of their role or setting, to have the opportunity to develop their own leadership capability so that through principles and inspirational leadership, a culturally capable, competent and connected teaching profession achieves educational equity and excellence for all children and young people in Aotearoa New Zealand.

Unteach Racism
Unteach Racism is a kaupapa grounded in Te Tiriti o Waitangi, shaped by the profession, and guided by the belief that teachers are powerful agents of change.
The importance of Rauhuia
Featuring Teaching Council leaders Lesley Hoskin and Tamahau Rowe, this powerful video - filmed at Matangireia in Parliament - offers insight and inspiration for engaging with Rauhuia.
They emphasise that Te Tiriti o Waitangi must underpin leadership development for kaiako in Aotearoa.
The video also challenges traditional leadership hierarchies, promoting a Māori whānau model where leadership comes from behind and alongside others.
