Know me before you teach me As educators you’ll have access to ākonga and learner information to support them in their learning – whether that’s when they’re starting at your school or a new one, or part-way through a term or the school year. Te Rito helps by enabling ākonga and learner information to follow them. The Te Rito app has many of the capabilities of the main Te Rito web browser interface. Some complex features for certain types of users, such as the gradebook used by teachers, aren't available on devices with small screen sizes.
