Code of Practice

Code of Practice for the Pastoral Care of Tertiary and International Learners

NZSE has agreed to observe and be bound by the Education (Pastoral Care of Tertiary and International Learners) Code of Practice 2021 which provides the framework to support the wellbeing and safety of domestic and international students. The code makes clear that creating an environment that supports learning and wellbeing is a shared responsibility between tertiary providers, students, whānau and the wider community.
