Have A Say

Posted by dane on June 8, 2011 in Education, Opinion |

I recently received a letter from the Hon Tony Ryall, MP for the Bay of Plenty, asking for my thoughts in regards to education issues.  Whilst some of these questions are more appropriate for me to answer, I felt it would be beneficial to hear your opinions on the other questions.

The following are questions that you may like to have a say on.  You may like to comment here (click on the comments bar), email me, or if you want to be more personal you are more than welcome to come into school and have a chat.

  1. What challenges do rural communities face in early childhood education?  What would you like to see from the Government policy in this area?
  2. What do you see as advantages/disadvantages of learning in a rural school environment, rather than a larger city school?
  3. Does a small classroom/school size have a social impact?
  4. What is your view on recapitation (a school that offers year 1 to year 8 classes)?
  5. What does high-speed broadband mean to you?

Please feel free to send me your thoughts/opinions.  One of the luxuries of living in a democratic society is that we have the  opportunities to have a say on how you would like schooling to be offered to your children.
