Abstract
How power influences the culture and structure of State schooling in Aotearoa has historically been set by the State and, although this has been particularly harmful for Māori, structural change continues to be imposed from the top. For example, the latest Education and Training Act came into effect in August, 2020. Changes through this Act are further supported by Ka Hikitia – Ka Hāpaitia, the National Education Learning Priorities (NELP), the Curriculum Refresh, and the Aotearoa New Zealand Histories Curriculum. Other major changes, across the system, are set to come into effect by 2024. This paper discusses some of the learning that is required if cultural changes for equity and belonging are to be achieved within these imposed structural changes.
