That’s your opinion - posters can judge for themselves.

Will not suit Maori politicians however.
Back in the 1960's, how much education was available and funded in Tikanga Maori or Te Reo Maori? It was integration or next to nothing available?

You are right, not much back then. We now have "Whanau classes" where things are taught in maori language and customs and not in line with the mainstream teaching. My wife sometimes teaches in some of these classes and I really fear for the future of many of the kids that are being put through there. Will they be employable and able to find their way in the World ? It is my big fear they are not. Is it possible we are already seeing the result of this lacklustre PC approach to education over the last couple of decades, in the lack of willingness of many young people to work ?
I suspect it is a contributing factor.

Like I wrote, overseas students come to study here and pay mega bucks for the privilege. Nothing wrong with our education - everything wrong with the attitude of those who prefer easy jobs and playing sports only.

I had been addressing your criticism related to Maori in the 1960's and 70's.
However are you implying that the current education system is more geared up to satisfying international students rather than the circumstances and challenges faced by domestic NZ populations?

Most off-market threads are like that. Perhaps you could offer your thoughts as to whether you think the Labour Party education policy will help more Maori engage more with education and whether that is desirable?
