So Covid meant that the Government didn't need to employ teachers, because there weren't any public schools.
Just immediately prior to Covid they were saying they didnt' have enough physical building classrooms or teachers to teach all the kids of the relevant age. So that means some kids weren't going to get to go to school.
So then during Covid they tried to make it easy for kids to be dumped or ditched off of the school rolls without anybody noticing or caring or..
Anyway...
Now they want to say at least 1/4 of New Zealanders cant' read or write or do basic math.
I imagine now they have their sights set on 3/4.
Of course it doesn't matter at all whether what they say is true, at all.
ALl that matters is what they say about yuo.
I mean, clearly I don't even have the capacity to write a 1 year research masters in 1 year.
I mean clearly.
Strange... How I went from being one of the most celebrated students with honors and very high grades...
To being that illiterate.
Apparently that's a normal or usual thing that happens. To most people more than 3 years post-graduation comptency is in question.
Whereas pulling judges out of their retirement to hear court cases.. Oh that's just business as usual.
Because the statutes are all about giving the government unlimited power to do anything it wants. That's what the ministry has to say when you complain about anything that any government employee has done (or failed to do).
We should not be allowed to take internatioanl studnets (or train domestic ones -- that is to say it should be made clear they are not graduating studnets or employing them in the capacity of their training when they try and apply for jobs in that field)...
Or maybe this is just how the entire world is.
So you couldn't or wouldn't expect Harvard and so on to denounce these practices because that's what htey are up to.
I guesst hat's the most resonable explanation as to why they don't do anything.
