Volunteer Expression of Interest
Volunteer Expression of InterestThank you for your interest in becoming a Reader or Writer Volunteer.Schools across New Zealand work incredibly hard to provide this support. As the number of students requiring reader and writer assistance continues to grow, so too does the need for community volunteers who are willing to help.The Reader Writer Collective exists to connect schools with people who are willing to volunteer their time during assessments and examinations, helping strengthen the support already being provided within our schools.If you’d like to be part of that community, we’d love to hear from you.
PLEASE NOTE
The Reader Writer Collective does not assess, approve, train, vet or supervise volunteers. Schools remain responsible for determining volunteer suitability, any required vetting or screening, training, supervision and all assessment procedures.
