Maxim Short Cuts | Education

By Jason Heale November 11, 2022

In this Maxim Short Cut, we talk to Researcher ‘Alapasita Pomelile about the state of our society’s soul as she looks at the results of the latest NCEA pilot programme. Perhaps it’s time to have honest and uncomfortable conversations about the state of New Zealand education. It’s time to review how we train our teachers and ensure our teaching programmes are driven by the Science of teaching and learning—rather than ideology.

Join us as we highlight some of the more thought-provoking aspects of our column, talk about the critical issues, and listen to the column read by the author.
