Green on Education

The Green Party wants education to be free and available to everyone, from preschool through to university. They would write off student loan debt and make early childhood education fully funded. They want schools to include Māori language and culture, and to better support students with disabilities or health needs. They want communities, staff, students, and Māori to have more say in how schools and other education organisations are run.

• Provide fully funded free ECE for all preschool-aged children
• Provide fees-free tertiary education and write off all student loan debt
• Embed a Tiriti-centric education system that empowers learners to succeed in all learning environments
• Establish a single agency to coordinate and resource specialist supports for learners with health and disability support needs
• Invest in education that builds understanding and appreciation for diverse cultures, including ethnic, religious, rainbow, and disabled communities
• Develop a more representative, democratic, and transparent governance model for all education organisations
