Finally some more rules for the University to ignore
After a lengthy submission period, the Government has finally wrapped up their tertiary pastoral care code, called the Education (Pastoral Care of Tertiary and International Leaners) Code of Practice 2021.
They now expect compliance from tertiary institutions throughout New Zealand. While there were concerns about what the code was seeking to achieve, the submission period did allow groups to influence the final code to be more student-minded than earlier iterations.
