who has the best education policy

ACTs latest ad served to me had me baffled. Introduce standardized tests for primary schoolers -> ??? -> Prevent skilled workers from moving to Australia. Logical reasoning, how does it work.

echinopsis posted:who has the best education policy The Greens, but they wouldn't get to put any of it into place even if labour/greens/TPM managed to win somehow. Labour's policy is basically just to continue with their education work programme which is ok, I think the curriculum refresh is good in theory but not pitched right for classroom teachers. The common practice model they want to bring in for language and literacy and maths could be good but they haven't released anything other than the guiding values yet. National's policy is bad in a pretty similar way to the previous National govt, basically trying to use accountability (via testing) and competition to make teachers do their jobs better, without any understanding of what teachers need in order to do their jobs better, or what effect that competition and accountability has on teaching and curriculum (it's bad). I'm sure National will continue with most of Labour's work programme too, though. ACT actively wants to burn the public education system to the ground so that businesses can make profits off its corpse. I expect that they'll at least get charter schools brought back which isn't the end of the world, I'd be really surprised if National agrees on their voucher system that would spell the end for quality public education in NZ. NZF don't have any broad education policy but will probably insist on some specific terf poo poo around bathrooms and sex ed that National will have to give them if they're needed for a coalition.

Have a look here, it'll give you some idea: https://votecompass.tvnz.co.nz/nz2023 And then once you've done that ignore the results and go and vote either for the green party or te pāti māori If you live in Auckland central, Wellington central, or maybe Rongotai then vote for the green party candidate as your local MP, everywhere else go for Labour voiceless anal fricative fucked around with this message at 19:27 on Sep 27, 2023 |

The vote compass is useless at best and telling people they're an NZ First supporter at worst. I've been pointing people to policy.nz during my volunteer work. It's good, it's objective and it's simple to understand. It allows people to engage on a deeper level with politics by enabling them to connect the dots between government policy and what the parties will actually do for the country.

If a website tells someone that they're an x supporter based on frankly a glorified personality test with the quality of some of those questions, and they use that alone to guide their voting, they've completely failed to engage with politics on any meaningful level. Policy needs to be the entry point, and the vast majority of people that take the compass quiz aren't going to look any further than the result.

It also makes Labour think "see? We won that seat without giving anything up to the Greens, therefore we are on the correct course". e: that's to comrade byatlov
