Meat in the sandwich: The impact of changing policy contexts and local management of schools on principals’ work in New Zealand 1989-2009
No full textThe impact of principal leadership on school outcomes, particularly student achievement, is assuming unprecedented attention internationally. Official discourses often assume that principals can be trained to achieve prescribed outcomes through the employment of learned strategies. Such claims are challenged by critical leadership scholars who insist on the significance of context. This paper explores the impact of policy contexts on the work of a small group of experienced principals in New Zealand over a period of 20 years. During that time, they often struggled to reconcile their own espoused educational principles with policy imperatives in a small country where Local Management of Schools (LMS) has been extreme. It argues that national policy discourse around competition, curriculum and achievement, together with formal accountability to local lay Boards of Trustees (BOTs), are sources of tension and moral ambiguity, which tempt principals to comply and play the game for the sake of their schools. Principals are also caught between local and national accountabilities. In spite of this, principals in the study maintained an educational vision encompassing the wider social context of New Zealand education and retained a sense of personal agency
Earth architecture & building in New Zealand
No full textEarth building in New Zealand has been in existence since the first settlers introduced it in the early 1800s as a means of building temporary shelters. With new technologies, earth construction has developed over the last one hundred and fifty years to suit New Zealand's climatic conditions and to meet modern day requirements. This development has however, focused primarily on the practical issues and "build-ability" of earth homes.
The title of this report, "Earth Architecture & Building in New Zealand" is a reflection of what is happening in New Zealand today. During the course of this research, it became apparent that there were few examples of earth architecture and many examples of earth buildings in New Zealand. More often than not, this is a direct result of lay designers designing and building their own homes without first seeking professional advice from an architect. These earth buildings contain many of the unique qualities that earth has to offer, yet still don't speak about location or siting, nor do they capture the richness of earth
