I had never heard of the Aotearoa Educators’ Collective, until they were quoted at length in this Newsroom article, criticising the Government’s curriculum refresh. I looked up their website and found this is their policy platform:
So they want schools focus on giving students the capacity to be social justice activists, and to deprioritise literacy and numeracy.
If they are unhappy with what the Government is doing, this can only be a very good thing.
