Show Notes

ACT is promising a huge shake-up to the education system, aiming to hold underperforming schools to account. 

Its new education policy would crack down on ECE providers that don't teach children the basics. 

The party would increase surprise visits to early childhood providers and penalise those failing standards. 

Leader David Seymour told Kate Hawkesby that they need to start thinking out of the box and find new ways to make the education system work. 

He said that if they don’t, New Zealand runs the risk of losing its first world status.
