Colleges of Education in New Zealand

There are five autonomous, state-funded Colleges of Education in New Zealand and one School of Education which is part of the University of Waikato. These six institutions have the note of training teachers for primary and secondary schools, early childhood education centres and special educational institutions. They also provide continuing education courses for practising teachers who wish to gain advanced qualifications and in-service courses to up-date teachers when curriculum changes are made. The aim of the Colleges is to maintain and improve the quality of teaching in schools and institutions at all levels.

The major qualifications provided by Colleges of Education are a three - year Diploma of Education and a four-year Bachelor of Education degree, awarded jointly by the local university and the College of Education. In the case of secondary teacher training, a one-year postgraduate diploma is awarded. A Higher Diploma of Teaching and an Advanced Diploma of Teaching are available for practising teachers.

Various specialist courses and qualifications are offered in some of the Colleges. These include postgraduate certificates, diplomas in special education (for teaching children with physical, visual, hearing or intellectual impairments), reading recovery, educational management, librarianship, information technology, guidance, teaching English as a second language, social work and bilingual education.

Conjoint programmes leading to the Bachelor of Education degree and Diploma of Teaching are available at several universities in association with their local colleges of education.
