Seeing your school through the eyes of Māori parents

Janelle Riki-Waaka, Accredited Facilitator (English-medium and Māori-medium) at CORE Education, talks about how schools can better reflect the bicultural heritage of Aotearoa New Zealand so that all students can connect to and see themselves in their school. Janelle asks educators to look at their schools through the lens of a Māori parent – what would I see, hear, and feel in the school/classroom that shows that a child’s culture, language, history and tikanga will be valued and celebrated?
