Teach. Transform.
Accredited by NZQA and the NZ Teachers Council, BTI's Teacher Education programmes include significant time with children in schools and early childhood centres. We focus on three areas of development to help you become not just any teacher, but a memorable teacher!
We focus on who you are as a teacher. We know that teaching is not just a set of skills. We believe you will teach out of who you are - your person. That is what children remember! So we're interested in your personal and spiritual development. These courses are called PIPI : Professional Inquiry and Personal Integration. There is small group work, discussion, mentoring and teaching input.
Research and knowledge are important so you learn to think like a teacher so we include courses that extend your knowledge of education and teaching skills and look at each aspect through a Christian worldview. Courses cover Christian Education, human development, cultural and multi-cultural issues and the power of research to refine what we do.
Time in the classroom is important to put the knowledge into practice. You will learn how to create stimulating environments for children.

Student Endorsement
Here's what one of our graduates had to say about BTI...
"We have a real opportunity to make a difference to children! The community atmosphere at BTI is "brilliant", partly because the smallness of the campus encourages real relationships and intimacy. This solid foundation has stood me in good stead as I work with children and their famillies who deal with many challenging situations."
