About us

Resource Teachers: Learning and Behaviour (RTLB) were established in schools in 1999 as part of the Special Education 2000 policy. The primary role of an RTLB is to provide itinerant specialist support to, and work with, students and teachers in order to improve the education outcomes for students with moderate learning and/or behaviour difficulties.

Currently 762 RTLB work in 195 clusters of schools. Forty-five RTLB (Maori) provide support specifically to meet the needs of Maori students.

We are currently working on a communication process for all RTLB so that a generic email address can be used nationally. If you have any questions regarding RTLB please make contact the Executive Committee who will help direct you to the right regional representative. enquiries@rtlb.org.nz
