Erica Stanford our current Minister for Education proclaiming that kids should be at school instead of the hikoi is such an incredibly out-of-touch and condescending take.
These rangatahi are learning our history, not just from a book, but they are experiencing it in real time as it happens and being immersed in their own culture, learning from kaumatua and seeing role models that they can identify with by being a part of it.

No amount of funding or curriculum restructuring could ever replicate this defining moment. Erica Stanford needs to get a fucking grip, this is what REAL education looks like, not your wishy-washy corporate reporting version focusing on attendance rates.
You have shown that you care more about posterity and how good your portfolio looks than actually allowing kids to access quality education, whether in or out of the classroom, which makes you unfit to serve in your role. Fuck right off!

@weekendspy What on earth does Strickland think they were going to teach in school today that was likely to be more educational?
