Getting started

The coordinator role

A Te Kura coordinator is the person responsible for managing students who are dual enrolled with Te Kura.

As coordinator you are pivotal to the success of the dual enrolled students through your school/provider, by ensuring that:

  • they are enrolled in the appropriate courses
  • they organise their work
  • good standards are set and deadlines met.

Coordinators are also the main contact for Te Kura teachers at each school/ provider.

To enjoy and succeed in Te Kura courses, dual enrolled students need a supportive and structured environment, clear expectations of what study with Te Kura involves, adequate study time and the necessary resources for their courses.

Your regional Relationship Cooordinator is your Te Kura support person and a useful person to keep in touch with, to answer questions and to assist with any difficulties.

Our Guide for Coordinators provides simple, best practice guidelines designed to help you, as coordinator, provide the best support for your school's dual students. Please read through the guide and the other resources on our website, and use any that are relevant to you and your students.

For general questions contact the Relationship Coordinator for your region.
