Key competencies 

This section contains resources and materials that support the teaching and learning of the key competencies. 

The New Zealand Curriculum (2007) identifies five key competencies:  

  • Thinking 
  • Relating to others 
  • Using languages, symbols, and texts 
  • Managing self 
  • Participating and contributing 

On 13 June the Minister announced changes to the National Curriculum. As changes to the curriculum are progressed the resources in this section will be reviewed and updated to align to the refreshed New Zealand Curriculum. We appreciate your patience while this work is completed.
