Abstract | Maori medium education provides a range of options for families wishing to educate their children through the indigenous language of Aotearoa New Zealand. Level 2 programmes with 51-80% Maori language instruction, can play an important role in supporting students and their Maori language development, yet little is known about these programmes. This project explored the experiences of whanau (families) and students of level 2 Maori medium programmes to gauge the contribution they make to the education of students. It found that this form of education attracts whanau with wide ranging aims and expectations, but offers highly satisfactory educational options for them. However, there are some tensions, particularly in regard to the part they play in lifting students' Maori language skills. Ensuring graduates of level 2 programmes have a pathway to learn the Maori language beyond primary school was also a cause for concern. (As Provided). |
