Education Voice

New Zealand's curriculum is changing fast, from new requirements in the early years through to the overhaul of secondary qualifications. Decisions made now will shape how a generation of young people learn. But are the people closest to the classroom being heard? Education Voice brings together the people who live these changes every day. Join Labour candidate Brendan McEnroe and a panel of voices from across education for an honest conversation about what's changing, what it means for our schools, and what our community wants for the future of learning. Hear from: • Teachers on putting new curriculum requirements into practice and the pressures that come with it • Students on how the changes affect their learning, their qualifications and their next steps • Parents on what families are seeing at home and what they need to know • Union representatives on workload, resourcing and the voice of the profession Confirmed Speakers: • Hon Ginny Anderson : Labour Party Education Spokesperson for Education - Recording • Brendan McEnroe : Labour Candidate for East Coast Bays • Matt Brachi : Labour Candidate for Port Waikato • Claire Amos : Education Principle • Brie Elliott : Politics Student (Simplifying NZ politics with passion, humour and music.) • Ally Kingi : Ally Kingi, Support Staff rep NZEI Te Riu Roa • Maiana McCurdy : Chair, North Shore-Hibiscus Rōpū, NZEI Te Riu Roa • Jo Patrick • Student • Parent What to expect • Welcome and introduction from Brendan • Presentations from teachers, students, parents and union representatives • Open Q&A, so bring your questions • Close Brendan • Time to talk with speakers over a cuppa afterwards Who should come?
