In 2016, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. As I've said before, my world broke. I tried to resign. The only reason that I was able to become Minister of Education was that John Key, as I cried my eyes out, said, "You're not fucking going anywhere." I became the Minister of Education three months prior to the election period. I was proud to carry out Hekia's work getting a Cabinet decision to scrap the decile system within two years. Many communities are stigmatised by the system. There is a poverty of expectation that must be removed.
