What’s included in every package
1:1 PLD Facilitation
Tailored, in-depth support grounded in the aspirations of your kura.
Your dedicated facilitator works alongside you to navigate your leadership journey with personalised guidance and cultural integrity.
Cluster Hui
Localised learning and connection with other MAC kura in your region.
A four hour Cluster Hui each term: A purposeful space to share leadership practice, evaluate change, and strengthen networks; tumuaki attendance is expected, with leadership teams welcome.
Regional Hui
A deeper dive into leadership as a wider regional rōpū.
A five hour Regional Wānanga per year: Clusters come together (often marae-based) to deepen connections. Designed in partnership with iwi and hapū, regional wānanga offer immersive, place-based learning that strengthens iwi-kura-whānau relationships.
National Wānanga / Hui ā Tau (Conference)
3 days of powerful collective visioning with kura from across the motu.
Our National Conference brings together your full MAC whānau for cultural immersion, collaboration, and leadership development on a national scale.
Additional Investment
Invitation to both Regional and National Wānanga is included for kura; however, these events carry additional costs.
The maximum additional investments:
Regional Wānanga: up to $150 per attendee
National Wānanga: up to $1,000 (MAC kura receive a reduced rate; full rate applies to non-MAC kura)
Wānanga are for Tumuaki, Senior Leadership, Kaiako and Board of Trustees – we welcome all of your kura kaimahi/whānau to join us on this one of a kind experiential wānanga. Knowledge shared is better than knowledge kept.
Additional 1:1 Hours
Finding your kura has nearly used your allocated 1:1 Package hours?
Schools can purchase additional 1:1 hours to continue their journey. Additional hours must be paid for in advance.

Travel
As a not-for-profit organisation, we are committed to ensuring all travel costs are applied through a tiered equity approach. Travel costs will be communicated to you within your contract prior to signing, taking into account your kura size and location.
