Connecting you with learner information
Te Rito is a secure, cloud-based service for schools that connects and shares data between SMS and education systems.
It helps support tumuaki, principals, teachers and kaimahi with:
- Up-to-date, reliable information for your learners
- Reduced double-handling and administration for schools and suppliers
- Better insights from enrolment, attendance and achievement data
Te Rito's data is continuously increasing, providing a simple, smart solution for connecting you with learner information.
Know me before you teach me
By bringing together learner information from multiple systems and sources, Te Rito makes it easier to:
- Know who students are, what makes them unique, and what they need to achieve
- Embed a sense of belonging and a motivation to learn from day one
- Minimise the need for parents and whānau to repeat basic enrolment information
- Tailor learning and support plans based on near-real-time, up-to-date information
- Take a holistic approach to learning and wellbeing
Track outcomes for ākonga and learners
When you can easily track outcomes, you can better identify strengths and opportunities for growth to ensure your learners thrive.
Te Rito can help you understand data-driven insights, measure progress, refine strategies and optimise learning experiences. Its real-time data will help you with tailoring local practices and resources to support your learners - and continuously monitor growth and outcomes.
Streamline administration and reporting
As more systems connect to Te Rito and the platform becomes an increasingly rich source of information, the need for repetitive and often manual reporting and administrative processes reduces.
Streamlined, automated reporting can also be relied on by principals and boards to track progress, identify areas of risk and need, and inform decisions and commitments.
Learner and ākonga information is taonga
All information about a learner belongs to the learner, not a kura or school, and a copy of it can be requested by them, or their parents, at any time.
Te Rito's learner information is provided by kura and schools and if it’s incorrect, parents should contact the kura or school to have it updated.
It's the responsibility of the kura or school to keep it up to date, safe and secure, and Te Rito has processes in place to protect it too.
For more on Te Rito's protection of information, see Security and Privacy.
Every connection counts
There is no cost for kura and schools to connect to Te Rito.
