No mention of climate change in new curriculum until Year 11 (rnz.co.nz)

Children will learn about money management and the origins of Moriori but not about climate change in their first 10 years at school thanks to newly-published curriculums.

@rnzrss.bsky.social 'Both curriculums dropped all mention of climate change, despite it being in the earlier drafts, meaning students would not study the topic in any depth until the senior secondary school.' #nzpol #nzed #ClimateCrisis #2026Elections www.rnz.co.nz/news/educati...

Should be criminal to drop such vital information about a topic that's going to have such an impact on their whole lives.

Stupid and short sighted decision. The science behind this is easy to understand and not hard to find. What are they afraid of, kids wanting change?
