Standards for the Teaching Profession
THESE ARE OUR STANDARDS
The Standards for the Teaching Profession are made up of six standards that provide holistic
descriptions of what high-quality teaching practice looks like and what it means to be a
teacher in Aotearoa New Zealand. The additional detail contained in the elaborations
provides depth and context to the Standards themselves and supports teachers to identify and
develop high quality practices in their settings. The Standards are purposely designed at a high
level so every practitioner can apply them to suit the context they are working in.
