Small Schools New Zealand
Here in Upper Hutt, New Zealand, the Labour government planned to 'consolidate' our schools. This at a time when most of the research would seem to indicate that small schools are far better for pupils! These were my writings about this issue.

Enough!

There is now going to be a change of focus. Enough of the complaints! Enough of the research findings! Over the next few days I intend to present the proposed model for Upper Hutt. The idea is that we, working collectively as a community, can create a thorough rebuttal of the model. If time permits we may even be able to create our own submission with an alternative model that will meet the educational needs of Upper Hutt. Something that existing model totally fails to address.

To facilitate this I have created a Yahoo Group that will allow discussion of the topic, and dissemination of any relevant news. Sign up by entering your e-mail address in the box on the right and clicking on the "Join Now Button".

The Yahoo Group allows us to:

  • put up a calendar of events
  • share files
  • run chat groups
  • share links and references
  • create and run polls

So join us, and see what we can do together!
