The Education Minister says requiring boards to implement the Treaty hasn't made any difference in practice.
Erica Stanford has confirmed plans to scrap a clause which requires school boards to reflect local tikanga Māori in the curriculum and offer te reo Māori instruction.
The changes will go to Parliament today and are expected to pass before the end of the year.
Stanford told Mike Hosking she’s not certain what school boards were expected to do under the requirement.
She says they've clarified that school boards must work to raise outcomes for Māori students and teach te reo Māori to students who want to learn it.
