We are also seeking input into the School’s strategic priorities. While the Ministry of Education sets a number of strategic goals for the School, the Upper Hutt College Board and Senior Leadership Team also plan on where they want to focus their improvement efforts.

Initial thoughts on focus areas for the the next strategic plan can be found at: https://www.upperhutt.school.nz/information/uhc-draft-strategic-plan-2022-2024
