SOUTH CANTERBURY FALLS BEHIND NATIONAL TE REO MAORI NCEA RATE
What Maori is being taught at primary schools may be behind the rate of South Canterbury students studying te reo Māori being significantly below the national rate, it has been claimed.
One per cent of all eligible South Canterbury high school students studied te reo at NCEA level in the last three years, while the national rate was six per cent during the same period.
"In 2015, there were 23,508 more students learning te reo as a separate subject than in 2010 or being taught the curriculum in the Māori language some or all of the time," Le Quesne said.
"Te reo Māori is the most commonly taught language at schools."
