Election Planning
Election Planning is used by boards to organise their schools' trustee election campaigns, to ensure the elections are run well, and the most is made of the opportunity to involve your community. To assist with the election planning process we have a number of board resources available.
More resources are being developed by NZSTA to help every board to run a successful 2019 triennial school board of trustee election. Watch this space!
