LEOTC at Stardome

LEOTC stands for Learning Experiences Outside the Classroom. "The LEOTC project provides support for quality teaching and learning experiences for primary and secondary students enrolled in state, integrated, and registered private schools. Learning outside the classroom is an important complement to the learning that happens inside the classroom. It brings learning to life." *
All LEOTC services must meet core requirements specified by New Zealand's Ministry of Education (the MOE). Stardome has held contracts continuously with the MOE for the delivery of LEOTC programs since 1996.
