Prepare your school for the changing world with itslearning
itslearning is an innovative digital platform designed to help New Zealand schools navigate the changing landscape of modern education. Capable of delivering curriculum using either traditional or modern pedagogical approaches, itslearning empowers teachers to provide cleaner structure, sequence and scope to their students. The platform is fully customisable and can be measured against many of your school’s strategic goals.
Pedagogy should lead technology. An LMS that fully supports academic goals allows educators and administrators to prepare students and professionals for future education and career success.
What is a learning management system and why do you need one?
A learning management system or LMS provides schools with a user-friendly online learning environment for teachers, students, IT administrators and families. The systems are designed to support teachers to deliver better learning for their students.
While an LMS offers a range of digital tools to support curriculum management, lesson planning, assessments, professional development and more, the main aim is to create efficiencies that give teachers more time with their students and helps a school to function better than before.

Our mission isn’t just to create an awesome product. It’s to have awesome users; empowered teachers, accomplished students and engage parents.
Brad at GCT Education and the itslearning team provided us with outstanding support for the implementation of the platform. They have been very professional and responsive to a diverse range of queries and assisted us with the integration of hybrid learning at our school.
With the online engagement, there was a noticeable lift in teacher and student confidence during lockdown. It provided opportunity for more engaging and highly differentiated experiences, and teachers were forced to reflect on their pedagogy and move towards transformational teaching.
