Arinui is committed to making sure that Arinui is fit for purpose in changing times
We are listening and working hard to support you with supporting your practice and we’re committed to ensuring that Arinui continues to evolve.
So, here’s an update on what we’re working on right now:
- Establishing a Client Consultation Group to ensure future development and changes to Arinui meet the needs of its users. If you would like to join this group and provide some feedback or share some ideas, please click HERE to register.
- Introducing two new versions of Arinui to provide schools with an alternative to the original, well known version. (1) Arinui "Name to be Determined!”– this version will be more relaxed in its language and interface without losing the robustness that school leaders want to ensure professional growth and learning. It will include several lenses to help with problem-solving and decision-making. (2) Arinui Te Reo – we are taking the first step in shaping Arinui for those kura, schools and centres who work in a Māori-medium setting by introducing a te reo Māori version.
- Developing some customisable options within Arinui which schools can choose to add to their subscription to shape things for their context, depending upon the vehicles they use for growth and development (for example PLGs or curricular groups).
- Launching a built-in video-based collaboration space
for all users with state-of-the-art video analysis software and text conversations. There will be no extra charge for this feature, and we are really looking forward to seeing how kura, schools and centres will use this platform to help critique and grow their practice.
