1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1.1 Regional Tertiary Investment This document describes how the region of Tai Tokerau will respond to the desire for closer links and collaboration between tertiary organisations, treaty partners, industry, and other partners and stakeholders when developing tertiary education investment plans for the region. Tai Tokerau will lead a new approach to develop and test a new iterative investment approach for our region. He Whenua is the first stage in a phased approach in 2018 for delivery from 2019. He Whenua will focus on the primary industries; forestry, agriculture, horticulture, the natural environment (including water) and also transport. The purpose of the Tai Tokerau Regional Investment Plan (TRIP) for tertiary education is to deliver the best educational outcomes whilst meeting the needs of Tai Tokerau region and its people. Stakeholders representing Māori Treaty Partners, Industry, Providers, Local Government, High Schools, Learners and Support Agencies are being engaged to collaborate around regional needs to develop a plan that delivers the best outcomes for the regions communities, industries, high schools, learners and their whanau. 1.2 Phased Approach The TRIP will be managed in a phased approach, illustrated below. This particular project responds to He Whenua in 2019 as the first stage. Page | 3
1.3 Tertiary Education Commission The Tertiary Education Commission (TEC) is committed to investing in a tertiary education system that works for all New Zealanders; as such, there is a commitment to key focus areas and achievement of parity for Māori and Pasifika learners. Until the end of 2019, the priorities of the current Tertiary Education Strategy (TES) are; 1. Delivering Skills for Industry 2. Getting at-risk young people into a career 3. Boosting achievement of Māori and Pasifika 4. Improving adult literacy and numeracy 5. Strengthening research-based institutions 6. Growing international linkages Some key areas of focus for the TEC are: Schools to Tertiary - Improving the transition of Tai Tokerau school leavers into tertiary education either through a provider or through employment at an ITO. o By 2021, 61% of all Tai Tokerau Northland school leavers are in tertiary education the year after they leave school (from 56% in 2015 to 2016). o By 2021, 55% of Māori school leavers in Tai Tokerau Northland are in tertiary education the year after they leave school (from 49% in 2015 to 2016). - Increase in the proportion of Tai Tokerau students enrolling in tertiary education programmes at level 4 and above. o By 2021, 5-percentage point’s increase in the proportion of Tai Tokerau Northland students enrolled in tertiary education programmes at level 4 and above. - By the end of 2022, improve the participation and achievement rates for Tai Tokerau learners to the national average for all learners. o This will contribute to the goals of the TEC’s parity project. Primary Sector Growing key areas of provision and encouraging more learners to pursue opportunities in the primary sector. Growing provision in these areas will require TEOs to work together and with schools. This includes ITO and ITP relationships for Levels 3-5 provision. - Level 4 apprenticeships and related pathways. o Opportunities for Level 4 apprenticeships are growing in some primary industries. TEC want to invest in apprenticeships and pathways to them, and to support learners’ progress to higher levels. - Levels 5-6 provision related to management capability in the primary sector. o Management capability is critical to growing productivity. - Primary sector-specific degree provision. o Degree-level provision gives graduates the skills they need to integrate a wide range of technologies into primary industry systems. Interdisciplinary delivery models are particularly effective at building these skill sets. - Primary sector-specific Levels 8-10 provision o This aims to enhance innovation capability, and enable long-term sustainable growth.

Achievement of Parity i) Māori Achievement: TEC has set an organisational target that, by 2022: - TEC will fund provision in which Māori learners participate and achieve on a par with other learners. - Māori participation in tertiary education will be at levels and in fields of study that over time, should deliver parity of post-study outcomes for these learners. ii) Pasifika Achievement: Pasifika performance improved in recent years, but there is a significant and enduring gap between performance for Pasifika and for non-Māori/non-Pasifika at most levels. The gap is especially pronounced at level 7 and post study. TEC still have work to do to close the gap between Pasifika and non-Māori/non-Pasifika learners. TEC will work with the region to ensure the TRIP has: - key stakeholders being involved in the development of the Investment Plan. - leadership, governance and management commitment to achieving parity outcomes. - clear involvement of key Pasifika leaders in development of the Investment Plan. - a clear commitment and actions to attain parity of both participation and achievement (especially at level 4 and above) by the end of 2022, such as: o evidence-based initiatives that will make a much bigger contribution to reducing participation, retention and achievement disparities o delivery models better suited to the realities of Pasifika learners’ lives (e.g., secondary-tertiary pathways, workplace-facing provision, recognition of prior learning and short courses). 1.4 Our Region Tai Tokerau has many tertiary education providers serving communities from Auckland to Whangarei and the mid to the far north. Within the scope of He Whenua covering the primary industries and environment, there is one Institute of Technology and Polytechnic (ITP), two Wānanga, five Private Training Organisations (PTEs) and four Industry Training Organisations (ITOs) that operate in and serve our region; delivering quality education to communities through certificate, diploma, graduate diploma and degree level programmes. Northland has two regional economic growth strategies, both of which will underpin the He Whenua TRIP; - He Tangata he Whenua he Oranga (Māori Economic Growth Strategy for Tai Tokerau). - Northland Economic Regional Development Plan.

2 SCOPE This TRIP is the first of its kind in New Zealand and is being launched in Tai Tokerau. The plan will prioritise the tertiary education needs of the region and its learners and the necessary qualifications and training to be offered by providers and funded by the TEC. The plan will better connect the needs and aspirations of Tai Tokerau with how the TEC invests in education. This will in turn be reflected in providers coming together collaboratively to deliver those education services. The He Whenua project will develop a framework for regional investment planning that represents and demonstrates: - Communities, Treaty partners, local industry, employers, and local government working together to address the needs of Tai Tokerau Northland. - Planning and coordination with other TEOs that deliver tertiary education in Tai Tokerau Northland. - Work with schools to better align education programmes between secondary and tertiary and improve transition to higher-level tertiary programmes that deliver good graduate outcomes. This includes using the Career Development Benchmarks as a supporting tool. - Early engagement with secondary school students in tertiary education and career discussions. Sharing of information and data in an integrated, efficient and user-friendly way. - Review of programmes delivered by TEOs, industry, and employers in the region. Examining how tertiary education programmes for 2019-2021 will meet the needs identified in regional economic, social and industry plans and opportunities. - Consideration to opportunities for joint delivery of tertiary education programmes, joint support of tertiary students in Tai Tokerau and joint career development services. - Consideration to ways of support and delivery of tertiary education programmes in the work environment for school leavers that go straight into employment and for those for whom industry training is not an option.

3 COLLABORATION High-level engagement and discussions around the TRIP has been taking place throughout May and June with He Whenua partners and stakeholders across the region and external to the region. The TRIP concept has been shared with senior business leaders and key partners and stakeholders from Industry, Māori, and some support agencies across Tai Tokerau. Positive support continues, and wider communication is in progress to include high schools, providers, local government and regional support agencies. Tailored communications are being created to support this process. Initial contact is taking place through letters, phone calls, and followed up by individual and group hui across the large stakeholder groups. Information, commitments and discussions are being documented and captured in a central repository that will be used a reference tool when undertaking the plan narrative. The purpose of partner and stakeholder engagement will be to: - Discuss and agree tertiary education needs based on what is best for the region and its growth. - Re-validate findings of the Tai Tokerau environmental scan. - Seek support, input and statements of endorsement from stakeholders as to the proposals developed in the plan. 3.1 Partners and Stakeholders Partner and Stakeholder groups have been identified for the purpose of engagement around the TRIP for He Whenua. Many partners and stakeholders in the region are not directly impacted by the He Whenua TRIP, but are being communicated with to update on the overall activity ahead of further stages. A table of He Whenua partners and stakeholders are detailed on the following page, although this table is not exhaustive and will continue to develop. Page | 8

3.2 Process - Bringing the plan together There are three main work streams of this project to bring together a single submission for the regions tertiary investment plan, He Whenua; 1) Needs Analysis – Delivered through an environmental scan and landscape analysis to inform stakeholder engagement and plan development. 2) Collaboration (Stakeholder and partner engagement) – Managed through a variety of methods; individual and collective hui, phone calls and letters. 3) Plan Writing – Aligned to the two regional growth strategies, underpinned by a kaupapa tikanga framework and peer reviewed. 3.3 Needs Analysis Information from key documents and plans will help to inform the Tai Tokerau Regional Investment Plan (TRIP) for tertiary education. A desktop activity is in progress analysing relevant information as part of an environmental scan of needs for tertiary education in the identified Whenua areas in the region. A holistic research approach is being undertaken; this will then be reviewed and validated with stakeholders. This information will then inform stakeholder collaboration and hui to agree the best solutions to deliver the desired outcomes for the region. The following provides examples of the sorts of sources of information being referenced. Page | 10
