Is your school library a Māori Learning Environment?

Defining Māori Learning Environments

Ministry of Education documents set out the obligation of all schools to deliver teaching and learning programmes that support Māori learners.

These educational initiatives provide a framework for your school to develop and manage the library, and evaluate its effectiveness.

National Administration Guidelines (NAGS):

NAG 1:...policies, plans and targets for improving achievement of Māori students

National Education Goals (NEGs)

NEG 9:

Increased participation and success by Māori through the advancement of Māori education initiatives, including education in Te reo Māori…

NEG 10:

Respect for the diverse ethnic and cultural heritage of NZ people with acknowledgement of the unique place of Māori…

• Sets national targets to improve the performance of the education system for and with Mäori learners.

• Three underlying principles: – all Mäori learners have unlimited potential – all Mäori have cultural advantage by virtue of who they are - being Mäori is an asset; not a problem – all Mäori are inherently capable of achieving success.

The New Zealand Curriculum

• The school curriculum acknowledges the principles of the Treaty of Waitangi and reflects New Zealand's unique bicultural and multicultural character

• All students are to have the opportunity to acquire knowledge of Te reo Māori me ōna tikanga, to strengthen Māori students'

identities whilst non-Māori journey towards shared cultural

understandings

Research on Māori learners and implications for school libraries 

 Many schools have not provided library and

information resources (including digital

resources) and implemented strategies and

programmes that catered for the needs,

interests and abilities of Mäori students.
