SCHOOL DISCIPLINE - STAND-DOWNS & SUSPENSIONS

Lee (Lianne) from Glenview

I am interested in hearing from people who have had negative experiences and/or who have spoken or written to school teachers, school leaders and Board of Trustees regarding their concerns and/or complaints about stand-down and/or suspension decisions that they thought or felt or knew were illegal or otherwise invalid, unjust, unfair, unreasonable and/or breached the affected students rights.

Below is a link to the Neighbourly website which explains how to send me a private message if you prefer not to post them here:

Poll: 🤖 What skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

Poll: Are you a Te Huia fan?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

All three Hamilton MPs appear to be united behind the retention of the Te Huia passenger rail service between Hamilton and Auckland, as well as potentially expanding it to Tauranga.

But whether Hamilton East’s Ryan Hamilton, Hamilton West’s Tama Potaka and soon-to-be Labour list MP Georgie Dansey have the combined power to shunt transport minister Chris Bishop and Prime Minister Christopher Luxon onto their line of thinking remains to be seen.

Are you a Te Huia fan? Tell us more in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
