New Zealand's curriculum is changing fast, from new requirements in the early years through to the overhaul of secondary qualifications. Decisions made now will shape how a generation of young people learn. But are the people closest to the classroom being heard?

Education Voice brings together the people who live these changes every day. Join Labour candidate Brendan McEnroe and a panel of voices from across education for an honest conversation about what's changing, what it means for our schools, and what our community wants for the future of learning.

Hear from:

Teachers on putting new curriculum requirements into practice and the pressures that come with it
Students on how the changes affect their learning, their qualifications and their next steps
Parents on what families are seeing at home and what they need to know
Union representatives on workload, resourcing and the voice of the profession
