サマリー
あらすじ・解説
Education in NZ has long been controversial.
It’s not incorrect to suggest that a Labour Education Minister has an easier task than a more ‘conservative’ party minister (i.e. National’s Merv Wellington in the 1980’s.)
Similar circumstances apply in other countries. Donald Trump returns to the Presidency with intent to eliminate the Department of Education and return the responsibility to the States.
There are some valid reasons for doing so. Are there lessons for other countries?
Dr Michael Johnston has been consulting NZ Education Minister Erica Stanford. After years of experience, most recently at Victoria University, Wellington, Michael is now with the NZ Initiative.
His podcast contribution is very informative.
Following the Mailroom there is further comment on other matters, including AI and democracy.
