Our initial Teacher Education pathways are designed to be innovative, applied, and relevant. Whether you specialize in Early Childhood, Primary, or Mātauranga Māori, you will receive a comprehensive education that empowers you to excel in your chosen field.

Studying for an Education major or minor will enable you to develop your skills as a learner and gain a deeper understanding of how people learn. Additionally, you will have the opportunity to analyze the politics of contemporary education issues in society.

For those passionate about making a difference in their community, our Bachelor of Youth and Community Leadership (BYCL) degree is the perfect choice. This program will empower you to make a positive and meaningful contribution to your community.

If you're a working professional in the field of education, our postgraduate options are specifically designed to help you take your career to the next level. With part-time and distance study options available, you can continue your education while balancing your other commitments.

We understand that not everyone has access to a local campus, which is why we offer distance study programs. Whether you choose to study part-time or full-time, our distance study programs make university education accessible for students who have work, family, or other interests to attend to.

In addition to our academic programs, we also provide high-quality entrance testing, value-added assessments, and surveys for New Zealand schools. We are also proud to run the annual Kiwi Science, Mathematics, English, and Spelling competitions.

At Rehua, our students have the opportunity to shape their own future and make a difference in the lives of others.

Congratulations to all our recent graduates from the UC Business School. We celebrate your achievements and look forward to seeing the positive impact you will make in your chosen fields.

We also understand the challenges of implementing early-intervention initiatives to tackle student disengagement. That's why we are committed to conducting research and offering insights that address these complex issues in education.
