New Zealand: Modernising Schools in a Decentralised Environment
Sheerin, Bruce
PEB Exchange, Article 2 Feb 2008
The government of New Zealand delegates property expenditure decisions to each individual school. Such a decentralised environment creates a challenge for school boards and principals to obtain advice on the complex issues around designing schools. To inform schools, the Ministry of Education provides numerous publications related to design and selected best practice samples via its website. (Contains 3 footnotes.)
