Te Kete Hono is delighted to announce the appointment of Derek Wenmoth to the Te Kete Hono board.

Derek is a well-respected thought leader in the education sector and works extensively with schools and clusters as they seek to prepare students for their future. He also consults with policy makers and government agencies regarding the future directions of NZ educational policy and practice.

He is a regular speaker at conferences both nationally and internationally, and maintains a blog on matters relating to e-learning and other aspects of interest to educators (www.futuremakers.nz). In recognition of his work in this area, Derek was designated one of 2008’s “Global Six” by the George Lucas Educational Foundation, which recognises individuals making a difference in education. 

This appointment reflects the commitment to our shared vision of “powerful collaboration driving educational improvement and equity for all learners" and, working alongside the rest of our Te Kete Hono team, Derek will certainly be a great asset to our whakahaere.
