He Urunga Tū | An Entrance to Engagement
He Urunga Tū enables RTLB to be effective, inclusive, culturally responsive and safe in their practice. It is underpinned by ‘tino rangatiratanga’ (self-determination) for the mokopuna, whānau, kaiako, and kura. It guides and supports RTLB to facilitate the process in a manner that supports the journey to tino rangatiratanga that is respectful, and professional and maintains positive working relationships (RTLB Toolkit, p.7.), (He Pikorua).
With this approach, RTLB can empower mokopuna, kaiako and whānau to take charge of their own learning paths. RTLB are manuhiri (welcomed as guests) to help guide, support and care for the unique learning journey of mokopuna.

He Pikorua guides our practice so we can work together within the Learning Support Delivery Model to provide a coherent, evidence-based approach.
'Bringing to life He Pikorua' written by Leanne Greep (2021) is an e-fellowship research report completed through Core Education. Written for RTLB's as a step towards transforming our service to ensure equity.
