Taita College – Our story

We all need to wake up to the issues facing our children.

Upon listening and thinking this morning…. We know the problem… Action based on influence and expertise… Let’s turn this on its head… Role of schools as marae; teachers as/with whanau… Education as an enabler

Successful outcomes for successful communities rely on: Connections between expertise Funding for extra levels of specialised staffing for social, literacy, and leadership innovations. Support not finger pointing from agencies and govt departmental. Positive agentic attitudes from within the organisation.

Taita College – Our story

If they appear like one another today, they will appear unlike one another tomorrow.' (Ballard, 1915, p. 16)36 Problems with definition of, and solution to, problems.
