" I would like to take this opportunity to mihi to the team at Learning Leaders for the content and delivery of PLD during the lockdown and pandemic Covid-19. The range of learning, the introduction and variety of online applications was amazing, well timed and delivered by the most competent, passionate facilitators. Our staff thoroughly enjoyed being part of the zoom PLD sessions and have learnt so much that we will use within our classrooms. Virtual and face to face when the time comes. The follow up sessions, 1:1 problem solving and extra explanations by all facilitators was much appreciated. We all felt really supported by very knowledgeable and approachable facilitators. Our staff can wholeheartedly recommend the learning and professional facilitators with Learning Leaders" . Tash Stumph-(Principal, Tikitiki School, 2020)

"Rosina and I have worked together this year on developing an appropriate reo assessment for our kura. She has brought her considerable knowledge about the mechanics of language acquisition and learning to the development of a plan which will lift the language achievement levels throughout the Primary and eventually Wharekura"

"... From being nervous to participate and speak in my first Zoom hui with my colleagues to nervously hosting my first Zoom hui with my Yr2-4 students. My digital skills have grown at an accelerated rate and so has my confidence to push buttons (tutu) and have a go. Thank you all for enabling us to gain the knowledge and skills required to connect with our learners and their whānau. You give so freely of yourselves, your time, knowledge, patience and kindness. You make us believe in ourselves and our abilities to be thrown in the deep end and survive". Denise Dalton-Reedy-(Teacher-Hiruharama School, 2020)
