Dr Nina Hood: Education Hub founder on policy changes
The Mike Hosking Breakfast - A podcast by Newstalk ZB
An education researcher says the government's new education requirements will mean no change for some schools -- and a lot for others. The new government's making an hour each of reading, writing and maths compulsory at years zero to eight. Next term schools will be required to have cellphone policies in place -- but it's expected most schools will implement them this term. Education Hub founder Nina Hood told Tim Dower it's important students spend time every day on those subjects -- but it's more about the quality of instruction happening in that time. She says there are likely to be more announcements about the curriculum, lesson content and method of teaching. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
