Schools invited to join the Korea-New Zealand Digital School Exchange Programme
The programme, delivered in partnership with the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education (Seoul MOE) and Learn English Live (LEL), connects New Zealand students in Years 7-9 with their peers in South Korea through a series of interactive online exchanges.
Up to 10 New Zealand schools will be selected to take part. Each participating group will join four one‑hour Zoom sessions held weekly from 11 May to 8 June 2026. Sessions will be scheduled between 12pm and 3pm NZT to accommodate both time zones. Participation is free of charge.
The exchanges typically involve 20-25 students per school, matching the standard class size of Korean partner schools. New Zealand schools wishing to involve more students may form additional groups of around 20 students each.
ENZ and Seoul MOE work closely with LEL, which coordinates communication with participating schools, schedules exchange times, prepares teachers and students, and facilitates each session. Topics covered range from language and cultural sharing to UN Sustainable Development Goals projects, STEM activities and global citizenship themes. New Zealand teachers have consistently noted the benefit of not needing to prepare or deliver session content themselves.
Why join?
- Promote your school to a South Korean audience for free
- Showcase New Zealand’s unique education environment and culture
- Engage your students in a hybrid STEM and cultural exchange
- No added work to your teaching load – LEL takes care of all the admin and logistics, allowing you to simply show up with your classroom and enjoy the global learning experience
Teachers in previous rounds praised the programme for its smooth delivery and the enthusiasm it sparked in their classrooms, and the programme’s blend of STEM learning and cultural exchange has been highlighted as a key strength.

Is this right for your school?
The programme is a great fit for schools looking to build long-term relationships with Korean partner schools, particularly those with strengths in social studies, cultural or global studies, languages or global citizenship education.
It also offers a valuable opportunity to promote your school in Korea in a meaningful, low-pressure and no-cost way that can attract potential international students over the long term.

Thai delegation signs MOUs with two NZ universities
Education New Zealand’s Manapou ki te Ao (ENZ) Programme Manager, Jaruwan Pongjaruwat, led the Thai delegation from Rajamangala University of Technology (RMUT) and Silpakorn University (SU). The delegation visited several universities and Te Pūkenga business divisions across both the North and South islands in the last week of May.
Jaruwan said that the main aim of the visit was to facilitate a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) signing between RMUT and the University of Otago and between SU and the University of Canterbury. It also proved a good opportunity to further develop the relationship that these offshore partners have with Te Pūkenga.
“It was an absolute pleasure to accompany this group of senior officials from RMUT and SU around New Zealand. The visit gave the RMUT delegation members an opportunity to revisit institutions which they have previously partnered with for student and teacher mobility projects, including Wintec, Weltec and Otago Polytechnic.
RMUT and SU delegates see how Wintec manages engineering material and resources across different disciplines.
“It also provided an opportunity for our delegation to visit new education providers such as the University of Waikato and the University of Canterbury to learn more about the areas in which these institutions excel. They particularly enjoyed learning more about what each institution has to offer and seeing how New Zealand education providers link research to commercial products and services. On top of that, delegates also had the opportunity to visit Weta Workshops and have dinner at Bellamy's restaurant in The Beehive whilst in Wellington," said Jaruwan.

It is hoped that this visit will lead to future projects in the areas of teacher development, articulation programmes, student mobility and a joint foundation programme. The joint foundation programme will now be extended to cover students studying science and health science, allowing students a pathway to all eight New Zealand universities.

ITENZ International Education Forum 18 May
As part of Education New Zealand’s Manapou ki te Ao (ENZ) objective to give attendees a better understanding of ENZ’s direction of travel for the coming year, Geoff Bilbrough, General Manager Marketing and Communications presented at the forum. He gave a high-level view of ENZ’s marketing plans for the coming year including marketing and branding insights from recent research. ENZ’s Global Citizens Manager, Tyler Te Kiri, delivered a presentation on the Prime Minister’s Scholarship to Asia and Latin America scheme, what opportunities are available to the PTE sector and how PTE students can take part. The forum also included a speed meeting session with Auckland based ENZRA agents.
ENZ’s General Manager of Sector Engagement, Wendy Kerr said that it was important that we support the sector in a way that grows inbound students’ mobility for Aotearoa New Zealand in the next 12 months.
“Initiatives like the ITENZ International Forum encourage a collective approach to promote New Zealand education internationally. Since borders reopened in August 2022, all sub sectors have experienced a return of student visa holders. We look forward to working closely with the sub sectors to continue this upward trajectory,” added Wendy.
