The Hipkins legacy – Te Pukenga

Newshub reports:

There are serious concerns about the management of Te Pūkenga as it asks for more money for I.T. systems while course completions are plummeting and some enrolments are down. …

It’s not only staff that were struggling – provisional data provided to Newshub Nation revealed fewer students were completing their courses each year since 2019, with Māori and Pacific students suffering the most. 

Labour loves centralising, and their polytechnic merger has costs hundreds of millions of dollars and the outcome has been fewer students actually completing their courses.

It should be a sackable offence.
