Description

This week, Ruwan, Beth and Villa Education Trust’s Alwyn Poole discuss Partnership Schools. Will the model reemerge under a future government now that National has pledged its support for the ACT policy? Also on the agenda is ACT’s plan to give parents control of their child’s share of education funding through Student Education Accounts. The Government’s imminent plan to remove powers from community-run schools is also debated. Why is the Government planning to impose bureaucratic Education Hubs on schools when most of them perform well?
