Week 26: Professional Context

Create a blog post where you critically analyse issues of socioeconomic factors, school culture and professional environments in relation to your practice.

E ai ki te (Tāhūhū-o-te-Mātauranga 2017), Ko te pēke pūtea o to mātau rohe mo to mātau kura, ko te 1. Mēnā, he kura mahita, he kaipāmu, he whakamahi pī miere, he pirihimana, he nēhi, he takutai, he mahi ngahere, he mahi mahau. Engari, ko te nuinga o ngā mātua he kore mahi.  Na te kāwanatanga te pūtea tautoko.  Ko tēnei hoki te ohanga o konei. He iwi noho ki te taha moana.  He kāpata kai i reira.  He pāmu, he mahi poaka / he tia hoki, kua kī katoa ngā kāpata i nga kāenga katoa.  Kāre o matau tamariki ka haramai ki te kura i te matekai, ahakoa te kore moni i konei.  E ai ki te rīpoata o ERO (2013), he whanaunga tata ngā tamariki me ngā kaimahi katoa o Te Araroa.  I ahu mai katoa mātau i Te Whānau-ā-Tūwhakairiora, ā-Hinerupe, ā-Te Aotaki, ā-Kahu, ā Hunaara ā wai ake, ā wai ake. I ahu mai ēnei o ngā tīpuna nō Porourangi, arā nō Ngāti Porou.

He nui tonu ngā aronga nui ki Rerekohu hei tikanga mā mātau. Ko tētahi, ko te noho tahi a ngā kura mahita e mahi tahi ana i Te Mind Lab, ka puta ko te mahi tahi o ngā kura mahita kia whāia ai te mātauranga e o mātau tamariki. Ko tētahi atu, ko te whakamahi tika a ngā kura mahita i te Kamar kia tīmataria te parent portal me ōna tikanga.  Ko te mea tuatoru, Ko te traffic lights hei tirotiro i ngā anga whakamua mo te mahi mātauranga a ngā tamariki. Ko te whakarongo atu ki nga hiahia a ngā tamariki tētahi atu.  Ka tīmata i te whakamahi pī miere hei marau anō mā rātau.  Ko te mea nui ki awau, ko te noho a ngā tamariki, o rātau kura mahita me ngā whānau katoa hei kura harikoa, hei kura whakamana i te tangata ahakoa ko wai.

Kei te tika katoa nga korero a Stoll (1998) e pa ana ki nga mahi o te kura whai mana me nga āhuatanga katoa mona.  Ko te nuinga o nga kura mahita, kua tau ki te mahi tahi mo te pai o a matau tamariki, mokopuna i Rerekohu.  He tere hoki te whai māramatanga i roto i nga tikanga o te kura.  Ka awhina atu nga kura mahita e o ratau nga hoa mena he pātai, he māharahara, he aha rānei.  He pai tonu te kite atu i te noho tahi a nga hoa mahi i te ruma o to matau tumuaki i te mutunga o te ra, mahi rorohika ai, kai ai, kata ai.  He te mutunga, ka tutuki nga kaupapa mo te pai a o matau tamariki ki te whai i te mātauranga.
