Learning for Life

Policy Overview

New Zealand children need high quality learning opportunities in a safe and stimulating environment.

United Future believes that quality education is the key to a fair, strong and prosperous society. Quality education leads to full participation in community life, to enhanced employment opportunities, health and well-being and the formation of good relationships. It means our children have a much greater opportunity to reach their full potential.

United Future Will:

• Quality charater based education: An education that balances character and values education with academic excellence
• Effective and relevant education: Where education is relevant to the demands of a modern society and to providing real skills to the job market.
• Accountability: Where the high cost of education is recognised and treated as an investment and where the performance of educational providers is therefore measured and expected to be of a required standard.
