How education will change under the new government

The Front Page - A podcast by NZ Herald

Education was a major battleground this election.   Evidence showed decades of decline in the quality of the education system, with literacy and numeracy rates falling steadily.  Add the dual problems of absenteeism and overworked teachers and you have a system in dire need of repair.   So what is the new Government proposing? And will the plans put forward actually make the difference needed?    Today on The Front Page, Newstalk ZB journalist Shannon Johnstone joins us to discuss whether Kiwi kids are alright.  Follow The Front Page on iHeartRadio, Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.
