      FYI. Peters says that his 'god is raining down his vengeance on us because we are sinners' with this storm in other comment's on this site. In Peters world you would be learning the bible not any actual facts. He would want to punish your children for not proforming under that rule. Isn't that correct Peter?

This is just so abhorrent to us as parents. Thanks Michael and Professor Rata.

    The document Te Huihanganui (A Blueprint of Transformative
    System Shift) underpins many the changes occurring in the education sector. It is written using a critical race theory lens. It under pins the changes in the refreshed curriculum (Te Mataiaho). From the Mathematics curriculum (a subject which should be considered universal to all people). The statement is made “Being numerate in Aotearoa New Zealand today relies upon understanding diverse cultural perspectives and privileging te ao Māori and Pacific world-views”. This change to the curriculum should be the number one election issue, it will fundamentally change our country.

    The solution to the integration of Maori spiritual knowledge into the New Zealand Curriculum is through the introduction of the International Baccalaureate (IB) diploma course for high schools called the Theory of Knowledge (TOK). This is a compulsory senior interdisciplinary course that covers such things as how we know things, critical thinking, how different disciplines gather knowledge including the arts. science, religion, etc and most importantly there is now a section on indigenous knowledge. The latter is the place for Maori beliefs. Forcing the integration of Maori spirituality into science subjects is wrong headed and does a disservice to all those involved.

    As a teacher I do not have a problem raising the status of mātauranga Māori, I enjoy looking opportunities to use to use words in te reo, use elements of mātauranga Māori in activities and hold discussions with students about colonialism and institutional racism. I also agree with Professor Rata; the Education Department is too ideological. For example, it makes no sense to include Māori mythology and beliefs about spirituality into science, the origins of science represented a rejection of metaphysical explanations of natural phenomena, I also do not enjoy Māori rituals held at school which exclude the use of English. I would find them more meaningful and inclusive if there were explanations in English.

The idea is not to white wash children nor is it to make one of our Tiriti partners more special than the other. Knowledge is knowledge which is different from global information making the elite more wealthier and powerful think trump, Putin and and any other oligarch in our local and global communties. An inclusive understanding of the Tiriti is what needs to be upheld in schools that prepares all tamariki to be ative citizens on our on world stage.

Trust her like a wet fart. She believes that the current brand of newly minted Maori Culture that has become more able with the additions of European spiritual concepts, , Turning out secular schools into locations that will push the newly minted version of maori religious and God ideas - to the detriment of all other curriculum .

This is why money has been invested over many years to incorporate marae on school property to ensure these cultural based subjects can be implemented for those who want to learn it, it should be about choice. Q, are all maori going to be in agreement on the content of those subjects being taught, if not why implement it as being compulsory.
