Overview
Education Outside the Classroom (EOTC) is a powerful and integral part of learning in Aotearoa New Zealand. It enriches the curriculum, fosters personal and social development, and connects learners with the natural, cultural, and social environment around them. With these rich opportunities, however, comes a responsibility to ensure that every experience outside the classroom is underpinned by sound planning, robust systems, and a deep understanding of what safe, inclusive, and effective practice looks like today.
What You'll Learn
Participants will engage in guided self-review, explore case studies, and develop practical leadership strategies that align with the Health and Safety at Work Act, the expectations of the Ministry of Education, and the unique values of each school community. The course aims to build the confidence and capability of those leading EOTC, ensuring they are well-equipped to design and oversee high-quality, well-managed learning beyond the classroom.
Through this learning journey, we affirm our shared commitment to manaakitanga (care), kaitiakitanga (stewardship), and rangatiratanga (leadership), ensuring that EOTC experiences continue to inspire, challenge, and safeguard ākonga across Aotearoa.

The experience was not only enjoyable but also deeply practical - I’m walking away with tangible strategies and frameworks I can confidently apply in my own coaching practice.
