Because children bring their wh膩nau | families with them when they enter the classroom, we explain how to build a holistic view of an individual child. This helps you understand the distinct and complex lives of tamariki and their wh膩nau. At UC Education you get to engage with wider communities so you can see the whole child.

HOW TO APPLY
The whole child

Children bring their wh膩nau (families) with them when they enter the classroom. Which is why we teach you to build a holistic view of an individual child, to understand the distinct and complex lives of tamariki and their wh膩nau. We will give you tools from mini传媒 subjects such as health sciences, languages, and child and family psychology to do so. This perspective will allow you to gain a better understanding of diversity and reflect on your own teaching philosophies.

It鈥檚 really important in teaching to have a relationship with a child鈥檚 wh膩nau. Ideally you鈥檙e forming a partnership where everyone鈥檚 working together for a child鈥檚 best outcome. It goes beyond education to their overall wellbeing. We set up environments that stimulate all the different domains of learning, and it鈥檚 fun for teachers as well!
