How it will work
How it will work
Each learning community together with manu whēnua and local agencies will meet and plan how they work together.
Together they will establish any decision making protocols they need.
Together they will:
- decide the information to be shared to create a full picture of the needs of individual children and young people and groups of learners across their community
- agree how to share and store that information safely
- establish a learning support register or an equivalent resource
- identify all the resources, skills, and knowledge available in their community
- liaise with their local learning-support facilitator who will connect them to wider agencies and services and broker supports.
