Hon JAN TINETTI: These strategies are evidence based, and draw on domestic and international best practice, and expert advice. However, importantly, they have also been developed for the New Zealand context and ensure that we place the learner at the centre, and leave nothing to chance. They have also been developed in partnership with a range of educational leaders, teachers, learners, parents and whānau, and others from the wider community. This has included the perspectives of Māori and Pacific people, professional associations, unions, employers and industry representatives, members of the disability sector, and expert advisory groups such as the NZC, Curriculum Voices Group.
