Prime Minister Christopher Luxon and Education Minister Erica Stanford are set to face questions as they visit a school.
It comes after a turbulent year for the education sector, with the government pushing through numerous changes, including to the curriculum, which have not always gone down well with teachers and principals.
As RNZ reported recently, more changes were in store for 2026, an election year.
Recent headlines include hundreds of schools opposing the government’s changes to how they should regard the Treaty of Waitangi, the Charter School Agency signing a contract with a trust that did not actually exist and the perennial disputes over pay and conditions.
