Learning languages in NZ schools

Learning languages in a school setting involves developing learners’ capabilities for both learning language and using language to communicate across cultural boundaries.

Students appreciate the deep connections between language and culture and how they work together to express values and meaning in particular ways.

Learning languages – A guide for New Zealand schools

The Learning languages guide provides information to support the delivery of language programmes.

Principals, language teachers, board of trustees, and those looking to find ways to introduce or enhance language programmes will find comprehensive information in this guide. The guide is a useful reference for how to develop a vision for learning languages based on the benefits for students.
