Student views
How do our students view learning? How do they see their future, and define success? Is school meeting their expectations? Which subjects do they like or dislike – and why? What helps them to learn? What makes a good teacher?
The responses students have given to these questions add a valuable dimension to the discussions around the review of the New Zealand curriculum and te marautanga o Aotearoa.
