Widespread, free and quality education has lifted the masses out of poverty. Or at least that's what it used to do.
Access to a quality curriculum with teachers who are supported to teach are important factors to get children interested in education.
However, what we are seeing is teachers are increasingly unsupported and overworked. They are having to pick up the pieces for children who are in difficult social situations outside of the school's control. We have rising material child poverty and dire rates of school attendance. These are big problems that require innovation, investment and prioritisation.
One of the programs out there attempting to shift the dial is Lalanga toolbox, created by Lesieli and Daniel Oliver.
Lalanga seeks to take the load off of teachers and provide a quality curriculum that is culturally appropriate for their Maori and Pasifika community. Lalanga is about showing children their potential, inspiring high aspirations and making education into the most powerful tool for success.
