Kupu whakataki
Introduction
Whaiaa ko te mana motuhake
This tongikura by Kiingi Taawhiao has inspired and
guided our actions as a tribe from the time of raupatu.
Today, the essence of these words is embodied in the
tribe’s strategic blueprint, Whakatupuranga 2050.
Through education, Waikato-Tainui seeks to define what
destiny and success is to us, and in doing so, maintaining
our mana motuhake.
It is with great pleasure that Waikato-Tainui presents
our education plan “Ko te Mana Maatauranga”. During
consultation, tribal members were able to articulate
in their own words what educational aspirations and
success was for them. This plan of action is a result
of this engagement process and embodies the hopes,
dreams and aspirations of the tribe. It is a plan that
seeks to uplift our people and empower them to pursue
meaningful pathways, be committed to kiingitanga,
grounded in our tikanga, fluent in our reo and connected
to our marae and whakapapa.

PLAY IN THE CURRENT EDUCATION CONTEXT: AS
A PROVIDER, CONNECTOR AND INFLUENCER.
PROVIDER
To deliver programmes primarily to
whaanau and marae that provide opportunities
for all tribal members to become life-long
learners and leaders.
CONNECTOR
To connect tribal members to providers and
services that will support them as a life-long
learner, particularly in the Maaori-medium and
mainstream education settings.

INFLUENCER
To develop and maintain quality relationships
with the Crown, government agencies, regional
authorities and other iwi to support the
realisation of our Education Plan.
22Accountability
WAIKATO-TAINUI WILL REPORT ACCOUNTABILITY FOR EACH OF OUR PRIORITIES.
WE WILL MEASURE THE OUTCOME OF EACH PROGRAMME OF WORK AGAINST:
HOW MUCH DID WE DO? | HOW WELL DID WE DO IT? | IS ANYONE BETTER OFF?
The priorities have been mapped until 2050 with milestones to be achieved every 10 years.
This will guide planning and also provide a measurement of accountability.
