The coalition government is radically reshaping New Zealand’s
education system –overhauling the curriculum, scrapping NCEA,
re-establishing charter schools and much more. It says the
reforms are needed to reverse declining achievement, but critics
warn a broader ideological project is at work. Ollie Neas speaks
with teacher and PPTA national executive member Clare Preston and
Dr Shannon Walsh, an honourary research associate at the
University of Auckland, about what is really driving the reforms
and what is at stake for New Zealand's schools.
