A landmark report released today recommends bold changes to staffing in New Zealand primary schools to address equity issues preventing our children reaching their potential.
NZEI Te Riu Roa invited an independent panel of education experts, chaired by Steve Maharey, to conduct the
Pūaotanga review. The report says that current staffing is not fit for purpose, and that children are missing out due to high student-teacher ratios, teachers’ lack of time to adequately prepare for teaching, and inadequate specialist staffing resources.
