About us

Te Whakarōpūtanga Kaitiaki Kura o Aotearoa – New Zealand School Boards Association (NZSBA) is the professional body for school boards in New Zealand, representing and advocating for our members and providing services to all state and state-integrated schools and kura.

NZSBA is at the heart of school governance. We influence and inform policy and sector outcomes; we support and enable school boards to flourish; we connect like-minded people through our learning and networking opportunities; we strengthen communities by helping students achieve.

Te Whakarōpūtanga Kaitiaki Kura o Aotearoa was established in 1989, following the introduction of New Zealand’s largest school reform, Tomorrow’s Schools. We are a not-for-profit incorporated society with charitable trust status.

Our service delivery arm, GovHub School Board Services, provides support to all board members via Ministry of Education funding, while our membership arm provides independent advocacy for school boards to the government and the rest of the education sector. Approximately 80% of all school boards are members, enjoying access to exclusive regional and national events, benefits and discounts, as well as a direct say in how we advocate.
