Michael Johnson: New Zealand Initiative Research Fellow on $131 million dollar education package
Calls for the Government to keep up the momentum, as educational reform doesn't follow political timelines.
Education Minister Erica Stanford has announced a new $131 million package, which includes spending on workbooks, more maths intervention teachers, and additional testing.
New Zealand Initiative Research Fellow Michael Johnson told Ryan Bridge the reforms are positive, but long-term commitment is needed.
He says you don't always see results in one electoral cycle, it takes time for the learning to embed and show in the data.
