  • You can find further information about How to get an Education Sector Logon at the Education Applications and Online systems website.
  • You can download an ECE user request form to complete: Education On-line services access for Early Childhood (.pdf).
  • Once logged in (or as a guest) you will need to select the Te Whāriki tile in the Education Learning Management System.
