Summary

The Green Party supports an inclusive, accessible, and democratic education system that enables lifelong learning, empowering people to develop the skills and knowledge to participate effectively in a changing world. Learners can access quality free education that responds to the diverse needs and aspirations of people and their communities. The education system will honour te Tiriti o Waitangi, prioritising te ao Māori, mātauranga Māori, and cultural competence of all staff. Connections between education organisations and health and social services agencies will be strengthened, ensuring that education is accessible to all.
