What resources will be delivered for Māori Medium Education?

We are creating a full suite of Te Reo Māori resources for secondary schools. The resources are aligned with Te Marautanga o Te Aho Matua and Te Marautanga o Aotearoa. They are created specifically for kura that offer MME.

These are not a direct translation of the EME resources. While the resources are focused on financial capability, overall student and whānau/community wellbeing and sustainability is the goal. For Māori, whānau and communities wellbeing (hauora) is bigger than just financial health. It also includes whānau, mātauranga education, hinengaro physical, mental and spiritual and tinana wellbeing.

Our resources take a holistic approach to understanding financial capability and use a Māori context to help make sense of the importance of financial wellbeing.

A key success measure for Sorted in Schools is providing equitable access to financial capability education for all New Zealanders.

The MME and the NZC programmes  complement each other, meaning students and teachers can use both programmes if they wish.

What language are the resources available in?

Sorted in School Te whai hua - kia ora! resources are available in both English and te reo Māori.

Resources can be used across both curricula. For example, if you teach in an NZC setting but have a class fluent in te reo Māori, you are welcome to use the Māori Medium Education resources.

How much does the programme cost?

Sorted in Schools is fully funded by the government, and therefore a free educational programme for all New Zealand secondary schools and kura. 

Are the resources available offline?

Sorted in Schools is a digital programme but you can also download and print most of the resources if preferred.

How do I use the resources?

Our resources support both teacher-led and self-directed student learning and are designed to be used at home or in class.

The programme is the first of its kind, in that it’s aligned to the National Curriculum and embedded across core subjects. It is also free, and therefore available to all young New Zealanders.

The Level 1 and 2 Unit Standard assessments are quality assured by NZQA and can be used for students to gain credits towards their NCEA qualification.

How do I know I’m using the latest version of the assessment materials?

We will always indicate in the resource menu which version of the assessment is provided. When assessment version is updated, we will notify you in our .

You can always download the most up-to-date version.  Just make sure you have updated the version for your own records.

Why are completion certificates included in the assessment materials?

Sorted in Schools loves students to celebrate their achievements. This includes celebrating their journey of becoming financially capable. We have included certificates so you can hold an award ceremony, whether that’s completing the student booklet and/or the assessment standards.

Please note, completion certificates are not indicative of credits. When a student completes the assessment tasks, their results need to be lodged with NZQA through your school’s assessment and moderation procedures.
