Jan Tinetti, Minister of Education, says education isn't political. She needs to go into areas such as South Auckland and explain results like those below. (NB: I use UE for LEAVERS as a proxy for the academic results at lower levels).
University Entrance for Leavers
– Papakura High School – 8%
– Mangere College – 8.9%
– Tangaroa College – 11.1%
– Southern Cross Campus – 11.6%
– Manurewa High School – 12.2% (down from 23.6% in one year)
– James Cook High School – 12.8%
– Sir Edmund Hillary Collegiate – 13.2%
These are almost all in long-term Labour electorates but there is no sign that Labour cares. They are not the worst outcomes for schools in NZ but they are near the bottom and in the South Auckland area, this is what Labour calls “choice”.
For those who think ethnicity and ability are strongly linked St Joseph’s Maori Girls had 92% of their 2022 Leavers graduate with UE.
What are the solutions people? Economist Cameron Bagrie notes that if we want to see what the nation will look like in 20 years time – look at our education system now.
These young people are being failed and Hipkins was the Minister of Education for over 5 years.
Keep in mind we now have a situation where 25% of our young people are leaving school, after 13,200 funded hours, without even having Level 1 NCEA.

In essence Jan Tinetti is correct; its not Political, anyone with half a brain knows the root cause of the wonderful lock-step curriculum in schools, sexualization, fake history's, propaganda, un-scientific, confusion, and so on being overrun in our schools, is a directive from the UN/WEF ; the push is from "unelected, Globalist Corporations", our very own Parliament make-up, being so! these Fabian/Socialist Communist ideologies will continue to flourish while our traitorous leadership prevails- as most of you want to vote them back in!!!!!!!!!!!! Understand, they don't care about you least of all our children or the mechanics of drop outs, or pass rates etc. the future is being set right under all our noses - a tyrannical rule, with…
I can see demography, IQ and ethnicity written into the numbers. It's not commonally considered these days but Maori and other Polynesians have an avergae IQ of 85,, 1 std deviation below the Euro Pakeha norm. (Asians beat us by 1 std devn the other way.
Ethnic tribal Maori are rationed as to visible achievements. The higher the title rank the greater the achievemt allowed--that extends to the children. I have taught in Samoa and the few who spoke in class were from higher titled families.. I was aware of such connectiona and manners at the time.
The colleges named show varying numbers. They indirectly reflect the likelihood of Maori being enrolled there too. St Joseph’s Maori Girls I expect…
I've just read through the 2015 Curriculum and found not much to object to. So, I guess the new government could just go back to that with some tweaks maybe, which would save a lot of money? Here's the plan the current government has for the Refresh Curriculum and its implementation:

If Jan Tinetti says education is not political then she is ignorant and would be better suited to be Minister for Ignorance - She could get a second job as a consultant to the government!
Let's not forget Critical Gender Theory which is now deeply embedded in the Curriculum. Teachers lose jobs for not addressing students by their preferred pronoun du jour, and kids are taught to question their gender and that they need surgery and other medical intervention to feel happy in their own bodies.
