Having high expectations for Māori students’ achievement

School leaders and teachers need to have high expectations for achievement by Māori students.

Suggested questions for an inquiry about the Māori students in our school

  • Are our expectations for our Māori students sufficient for them to meet national curriculum expectations?
  • Are our expectations for our Māori students similar or different to our expectations for other students?
  • What has influenced our expectations for Māori students? Is our thinking deficit in any way?
  • How do we communicate high expectations for their achievement to our Māori students?
  • Are our expectations for their achievement similar to the expectations that our Māori students have for themselves? How do we know? Are they similar to the expectations that families/whānau and iwi have for their tamariki? How do we know?
