  • Colouring in the White Spaces: Reclaiming Cultural Identity In
    i Colouring in the White Spaces: Reclaiming Cultural Identity in Whitestream Schools A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Waikato by ANN MILNE Year of submission 2013 ii iii For the Warrior-Scholars: My Grandchildren: Chey, Blake, Georgia, Kairangi, Koha, Kaya, Zion, Maioha, Mahina, Kewa, and Ani, and my Great Grandchildren: Atareta, Te Haakura and Ariayhn & The young people of Clover Park Middle School, Te Whānau o Tupuranga and Kia Aroha College. You are the leaders of our future. iv v Abstract If we look at a child’s colouring book, before it has any colour added to it, we think of the page as blank. It’s actually not blank, it’s white. That white background is just “there” and we don’t think much about it. Not only is the background uniformly white, the lines are already in place and they dictate where the colour is allowed to go. When children are young, they don’t care where they put the colours, but as they get older they colour in more and more cautiously. They learn about the place of colour and the importance of staying within the pre-determined boundaries and expectations. This thesis argues that this is the setting for our mainstream, or what I have called, whitestream New Zealand schools — that white background is the norm. When we talk about multiculturalism and diversity what we are really referring to is the colour of the children, or their difference from that white norm, and how they don’t fit perfectly inside our lines.

  • Disability, Education and Development: Perspectives from Tokelau
    Disability, Education and Development: Perspectives from Tokelau Kathryn Meredith A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the Master of Development Studies Degree Victoria University of Wellington New Zealand March 2009 “We have to be determined to bring disabled people out of the shadowy world in which they are typically confined. ... Disabled people want what we all want - the chance to get educated, find rewarding work, lead worthwhile lives and be valued members of their community and in the world at large. These desires need not be just idle dreams, since much can be achieved if we are ready to give this extensive problem the attention and commitment it demands. We need to mobilize the determination to do just exactly that.” Amartya Sen & John Wolfensohn, 2004 i Abstract This thesis is concerned with the issue of people with disability accessing education. The contemporary international dialogue about how best to include people with disability in education recommends developing regular education systems to cater for the full diverse range of learners’ needs and abilities. This approach is part of an Inclusive Education philosophy and is designed as a response to all populations who experience exclusion from education, including people with disability. By examining people’s opinions, experiences, attitudes, aspirations, perceptions, knowledge, and understanding about disability, education and development, this thesis aims to identify the challenges of including people with disability in education and society in the context of a small Pacific Island developng nation, and the ways in which these challenges can be addressed. In doing so, it contributes to the growing body of literature which raises awareness of the experiences of exclusion faced by people with impairments; as well as the literature exploring disability issues from a social and rights-based perspective in developing countries.

ISBN 978-1-98-852806-9 (online) Published in April 2017 by Tokelau National Statistics Office, Apia, Samoa Contact Kele Lui, Tokelau National Statistician or Jaap (“iapi”) Jasperse, Statistics Advisor Tokelau National Statistics Office Phone: (+685) 208 22 / 20823 Email: [email protected] Profile of Tokelau: 2016 Tokelau Census of Population and Dwellings Abstract The five-yearly Census of Population and Dwellings is a very important item on Tokelau’s agenda. Its results provide the most authoritative data on how many people we have, what the composition of their households is, what education level they have, how they contribute to Tokelau’s economy, and so on. As a non-self- governing territory, Tokelau has a special constitutional relationship with New Zealand. This special relationship is strengthened by connections between the tiny Tokelau National Statistics Office (TNSO) and Statistics NZ. It is the latter organisation that has been largely responsible for the excellent Tokelau Censuses in 2006, 2011, and again in 2016. With the publication of Profile of Tokelau:2016 Tokelau Census of Population and Dwellings, we now have a very reliable time series over an entire decade with a wealth of data that are fully comparable (which is not always the case with 5-yearly censuses that were conducted prior to 2006).
