FOOD FOR THOUGHT

We had the Manawatu Principals' Association One day Conference on Friday. We were joined by colleagues from Wanganui and further afield.

Some of the more interesting things that were said:

John O'Neil:
We need to be careful not to end up with a curriculum for poor kids and a curriculum for rich kids.

Gary Punler:
An efficient school vs an effective school - what is the difference and where do you sit on this?

Iain Lees Galloway:
What will the successor to the Internet be?

Perry Rush:
How do we assess to show learning and understanding outside if the core areas?

What are your thoughts on these ideas?
