Education (Pastoral Care of Tertiary and International Learners) Code of Practice 2021

When students come to study in New Zealand, schools have an important responsibility to ensure that students are well informed, safe and properly cared for. To support this, the New Zealand Government has developed the Education (Pastoral Care of Tertiary and International Learners) Code of Practice 2021, which replaces the 2016 Code of Practice.  Ashburton College is proud to be a Signatory to the Education (Pastoral Care of Tertiary and International Learners) Code of Practice 2021.
