Explore how we approach learning. Here, you’ll find first hand experiences of students, educators, and leaders who have embraced flexible learning.
I really enjoy philosophy and it's created a passion that I want to continue in university. I've also really enjoyed media studies and psychology - subjects I wouldn't be able to take at my normal school.
I love teaching students who love learning and have a thirst for knowledge. It's a great platform to encourage independent learning.
One of the biggest student successes I’ve observed is the personal growth of students to be able to learn in this environment. It was so evident that those who were already enrolled in the class were able to cope with Covid times very easily as they were used to online learning.
NetNZ enabled me access to an amazingly talented Korean teacher (Sue Kim) and use what I had learnt from her classes to achieve my NCEA qualifications to a very high level and to participate in extracurricular activities.
I went on a fully expenses payed culture immersion in Dunedin and Christchurch. Not only did this further expand my knowledge on Korean culture, but Chinese and Japanese culture too. I made valuable friends and over all it was just the best experience ever, and I wouldn’t have be able to do it without NetNZ.

At the heart of all we do is a learning exchange. By contributing teachers or resourcing, schools are able to enrol learners into any programme in the exchange. Anyone can participate though. Whether school or individual. Everyone is a part of a reciprocal environment. NetNZ leads this environment, ensuring quality learning experiences through partnership with participating schools.
Teachers benefit from a diverse online community, connecting with colleagues across New Zealand while maintaining ties to their local communities.
Students benefit from interacting with peers from different regions, learning to engage constructively online while appreciating the value of local connections.
NetNZ programmes usually comprise 10-20 learners from between 5-12 schools from across New Zealand.
Each course has an online hub, using Google Spaces or Mattermost, which acts as the focal point for asynchronous learning and interaction. The hub centralises all learning, encompassing activities, resources, communication, discussion and collaboration. Each school has a learning support person (an eDean) who provides on-site support for learners and acts as a point of contact for the online teacher.
All programmes run a once a week synchronous or real time session of 60 minutes where all learners gather with their teacher(s) using Google Meet. Teachers increasingly use synchronous technology in more flexible ways, especially in providing one-to-one support or to gather a group of learners together for a specific reason.
The ideal way of participating is to become a part of the community and fully immerse your school in all the opportunities networked education brings. Join the NetNZ community and maintain membership by paying an annual subscription of $1985 (GST Ex).
