Poutūterangi 17, 2020 | 8 min read

E kopoua ana e te Poari Mātāmua o New Zealand Institute of Skills and Technology Establishment Board (te Poari Mātāmua) ngā kaiwhakahaere mō ngā poari o ngā Pūtahi Āpitihanga, Kuratini hoki (ITP), ā, nō te 1 Paengawhāwhā 2020 i mana ai.

Kua whakaae mai ngā tāngata e whai ake nei kia noho hei kaiwhakahere mō te poari o UCOL mai i 1 Paengawhāwhā 2020:

Catherine Cooney – Heamana

Ripeka Evans (Ngāpuhi, Ngāti Porou, Te Aupōuri, Ngāti Kahu) – Heamana Tuarua

Leith Comer (Ngāi Tahu, Ngāti Māmoe, Te Arawa, Ngāti Rangitihi, Ngāti Pāhauwera)

Ngaroma Tahana (Te Arawa)

“Ko te kopounga o tēnei o ngā Poari Kaiwhakahaere tētahi o ngā mahi nui hei wāihanga i tētahi pūnaha ahumahinga piritahi, mauroa hoki,” ki tā Barry Jordan, te Heamana o te Poari Mātāmua.

“Ko te korounga ia mā ēnei kopounga e taurite ai te taha whakahaere me te taha ki ngā hononga taketake ā-rohe, ā hapori hoki.  E manawareka ana mātou i te momo o te tangata me ngā tirohanga rerekē kei ia poari, otirā ngā pūkenga me ngā tautōhito hei whakatinana i ngā hua pai mō ōna hapori, mō ōna hapori.”

Ko te hiahia o te Education (Vocational Education and Training Reform) Amendment Act ko te iti rawa kia tokowhā, engari kia kaua e nui atu i te tokowaru ngā kaiwhakahaere mō te poari tuatahi o ia āpitihanga ITP, ā, ko tētahi haurua o aua kaiwhakahaere me mātua noho ki roto i te rohe e ratoa ana e taua āpitihanga. 

I kī a Cathy Cooney te Heamana Poari o Toi Ohomai Pūtahi Hangarau, “I Toi Ohomai, e ngākaunui ana mātou ki te hāpai ā mātou ākonga ā-rohe, ki tuawhenua hoki, kia angitu hoki ngā Māori i roto i ērā wāhi. Kua whakapau kaha mātou ki tā mātou whakahoatanga ki a ngāi Māori me ngā iwi, ā, e tino hiahia ana mātou kia kaha tonu te piki haere, me te tautoko i ērā kaituku akoranga huri noa te motu ki te whakarite whakahoatanga pai ake, mahitahi me ngāi Māori me ngā iwi.

“Ka awhi mātou i ngā whakahoutanga ki te mātauranga ahumahinga me te arotahi tonu ki te whai kia pai ake ngā hua mō ngā ākonga, ngā iwi, hapū, ngā ahumahi me te rohe whānui.

Hei ārahi haere i te nekehanga atu i te wairua o te whakataetae ki te āhua o te kōtuituinga tuku ratonga ki tēnā, ki tēnā rohe, kua whakataungia e te Poari Whakapūmau kia noho tētahi mema o Kaunihera NZIST hei kaiwhakahaere ki ia poari āpitihanga ITP.  Tērā e whiwhi ia poari tētahi tangata hei ‘kopounga poari-rua’. Ka whakataungia ēnei ingoa i te marama o Paengawhāwhā.  

Mō te kōpou kaiwhakahaere i whai te Poari Whakapūmau i tā te Treasury anga kopounga kaiwhakahaere ki ngā poari o ngā kamupene Karauna. Neke atu i te 370 ngā tono i tae mai i waenga i te wā o te Kirihimete me te huringa o te Tau Hou.

Katoa ngā kopounga ki ngā poari āpitihanga i whakamanahia e te kaunihera NZIST i te 1 Paengawhāwhā 2020. Ka whakamanahia ngā mema o tēnei Kaunihera e te Minita Mātauranga, Hon Chris Hipkins, i mua i te mutunga o Poutūterangi.
