Useful Information
Choosing furniture for your classroom refurbishment or new build project goes beyond just selecting chairs and desks.
It’s important to start with a plan and trusted partners by your side. Furnware can take the hassle away with innovative school furniture, resources backed by research, and a full-service model if you require it.
Check out our recent case study with St Paul’s Collegiate School, one of New Zealand’s leading independent secondary schools in Hamilton. Furnware had the unique opportunity to plan the fit-out and furniture for their new, ground-breaking innovative learning hub – the Lander Centre.
“Furnware listened to what we said and were very adaptive. They suggested things we wouldn’t have thought of from a design perspective because we’re not experts in that area. They were very helpful.”

Teaching Council consultation on temporary changes to the requirements for issuing Tūranga Whakaako Whai-herenga | Limited Authority to Teach (LAT)
The Teaching Council has received a number of queries from tumuaki | principals asking them to consider changes to how they issue LATs as a way of supporting schools and kura who are struggling to find relieving teachers. They are therefore proposing some temporary policy changes for issuing LATs as one solution for the current teacher shortage.
The Council would appreciate your feedback on these proposals, which you can do by completing a short survey (link below). The survey will be open until Monday 3 October. If you do need a time extension contact Jo Scott jo.scott@teachingcouncil.nz before the survey closes.
