Explanation of the ‘tohu’

The black triangle at the base represents the Ministry of Education’s strategy for te reo Māori in schools (English-medium), comprising curriculum, professional development, and materials. The heavy black lines represent the eight levels of the curriculum. Koru represent significant stages in learning, from early childhood to primary to secondary school to the world.

The colours in the tohu represent the following:

• purple – whānau
• blue – early childhood
• green – schooling
• red – the world
