- Educational disparities adversely affecting indigenous and other minoritised students, for example Māori in New Zealand, is problematic in many countries. Principles of social justice require that policy makers should address the issue. This book analyses case studies from three schools to provide critical insight into Te Kotahitanga, a theory-based, school-wide teacher professional development initiative that operated successfully in a number of mainstream secondary schools in New Zealand, 2007-2013, to raise Māori students’ learning and achievement. The case studies enable an inside view of the nature of the professional development and the support from responsive and distributed leadership in these schools.
