  The Maori language in New Zealand education
 
 
Title: The Maori language in New Zealand education
Author: Benton, Richard A.
Appeared in: Language culture and curriculum
Paging: Volume 1 (1988) nr. 2 pages 75-83
Year: 1988
Contents: The paper discusses the present position of the Maori language in New Zealand, its decline and revival in recent history, its current status in the educational system, and the challenges it faces in the years ahead. Among the issues raised are the implications of multiculturalism versus biculturalism in state policy, the role of the school in the maintenance and revival of an ethnic language; the balance between linguistic cultural elements in the programmes it designs towards this end; the necessity of community involvement; and the total restructuring of the syllabus that becomes necessary in bilingual education, not merely in language and language-related subjects but in other subjects also.
