Briefing to the Incoming Minister

Whakairohia he toki, tāraia te anamata | Learning with purpose, creating our futures

 

Our Briefing to the Incoming Minister (BIM) was provided to Hon Jan Tineti shortly after her appointment as Minister of Education, in February 2023.

 

Te Pūkenga BIM was intended to build on the Minister’s understanding of our role in the tertiary education system in New Zealand. It provides an overview of how we operate in line with current expectations set by the Minister of Education and an outline of our functions and Charter, as defined by legislation.

 

Please note information contained in the BIM was relevant as at February 2023 and will be subject to change as our work progresses.

Governance Review 2022

Te Pūkenga Transitional Statement of Intent 2021-2024 committed Te Pūkenga to (amongst other things) undertaking an external review on the effectiveness of Council (‘the Review’).  Accordingly, in late 2021 the Council initiated the Review pursuant to an agreed Terms of Reference that focused on Te Pūkenga governance framework, its effectiveness, alignment with best  practice, its fitness for purpose and any areas identified for improvement.

 

Dame Karen Sewell and Belinda Clark were appointed to undertake the review.

 

The Reviewers provided their final report to management in May 2022.  A link to the Review report and terms of reference is available here:Te Pūkenga Governance Review report.

Mobilising the New World

In May 2020, we published seven Mobilising the New World interim reports and invited feedback. We’ve now summarised that feedback to produce the Mobilising the New World Summary of Feedback. This valuable feedback, that NZIST’s Council has reviewed, can now be used as additional input for the transformation of New Zealand's vocational education sector, including informing the development of NZIST’s operating model. 

About Mobilising the New World 

Seven working groups consisting of 76 people from across the vocational education sector were established by the IST Establishment Board to consider the future of the vocational education once NZIST came into existence. The working groups were asked to think about the future of the provision of vocational education.   

While the world has shifted due to the 2019 COVID-19 pandemic since these reports were compiled, they are still relevant and important as we navigate our way towards a different way of providing vocational education.
