About The Trust
Welcome to The Stonefields Collaborative Trust.
Nau mai, haere mai.
Our vision is that powerful collaboration among school leaders and teachers drives educational improvement and equity for all learners.
Our mission is to create a range of collaborative opportunities for leaders and teachers, with the aim of sharing and working on ideas to generate innovation, equity, and school-wide improvement. We also believe in the power of evaluating and measuring improvements so that parents, whanau, and learners benefit from evolving high-quality learning environments that meet their aspirations.
Our unique relationship with Stonefields School allows us to offer a 'live site' perspective, providing opportunities to explore educational insights and strategies, space to talk teacher to teacher and leader to leader and to engage on the current issues facing schools.
Here’s what you can get involved in.

Dive into our dynamic environment with an initial 2-hour session, or customise your visits with bespoke sessions focusing on topics such as learner agency, team collaboration, innovative learning environments, evaluation and more.
