I can’t provide quality care and education to 10 two year old’s!

What does the issue of staff to student ratios mean for you as a teacher, and the tamariki you teach?

It can’t continue!

What will it take to fix staff to student ratios?

I am a good teacher with many years of experience but I can’t provide quality care and education to 10 two year old’s! It really is impossible – I do my very best but that’s not good enough. 1:6 is still hard work.

When we fix staff to student ratios, what impact will that change have on you as a teacher, and the tamariki you teach?

I could take a breath, reflect and engage in quality care and education.
