Lynda Stuart: Auckland's May Road Primary School Principal on government ditching open plan classrooms
Published 9 months, 2 weeks ago
Description
There's concerns the Government's being too black and white with its decision to pull the plug on open plan classrooms.
The idea was introduced by John Key's Government in 2011.
The Education Minister Erica Stanford says now all new builds will have more traditional layouts.
Auckland's May Road Primary School Principal Lynda Stuart told Andrew Dickens it shouldn't be a binary discussion.
She says it works well when you've thought about neurodivergent children, others that need the space to move and you've designed an environment for them.
