    (Massey University, 2001) Collier, Emma Edda
    Ko tēnei tuhinga roa e tiro ana ki te take i whakakaupapatia te kura whakangungu o Raukura. He aha te tūāpapa arotake te huarahi kia taea e te tangata, ahakoa ko wai ia, e hiahia ana ki te hokinga tuarua ki te kimi mātauranga tika māna. Heoi anō ko te whakatūwhera i ngā kuaha hei urunga mā te maha noa atu o te Māori, kāore i waimarie i mua ki te mātauranga i tōna wā i kuraina ai. He maha noa atu ngā take e pehi nei, ā, ehara i te mea he ngāwari ki te whakatikatika. Ināianei tonu, ara noa atu ngā mahi kei te mahia, pēnei i te kura whakangungu o Raukura, hei whakarahi ake i ngā painga kia whakatutukihia e te Māori āna whāinga. Mā te whakawhitiwhiti whakaaro ka taea ētahi ariā pakari, araiā whai kiko kia whakamahia ngā kaupapa here me ngā rauemi o nāianei. Kia tōtika ake te whakamahi i ēnei akoranga mō ngā akonga Māori. I whakamanahia a Raukura hei tautoko, hei hiki ake i te reo me te Matauranga Māori i Te Kupenga o Te Mātauranga me Rangitāne whānui tonu, me te whakaoho ake te ngākau tauira. No reira mai i te timatanga kua oti kē te whakarite, ko te reo Māori te tūāpapa hei kawe i ngā akoranga e akohia ana i ngā whāinga paetae ia rā. Ko te tikanga mā wēnei tauira e whakaako te reo me ngā tikanga i ngā wharekura, nā kua puta atu i tēnei whare takiura. Me te mohio mārika hoki ka taea te kawe tika te kaupapa, mō rātou ake, me te iwi Māori. Ko ngā putanga āhua e tauiratia nei ināianei, ka kitea i ngā Kōhanga Reo me ngā Kura Kaupapa Māori.

    Whanau/bilingual unit implementation : an educational response to change within New Zealand primary schools : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master in Education at Massey University
    (Massey University, 1992) Pringle, Patricia
    A study employing ethnographic methodology in the manner of Lutz (1984 ) towards the examination of change through the implementation of Whanau, or Bi-lingual Units, within an existing primary school structure in two components of low density Maori population. Each component contained a primary and intermediate school setting. Data were gathered through observation and interviews with Principals, teachers, parents, children and Resource Maori personnel. Two basic directions underpinned the study. One concerned with manifested change within the total school structure, and the other with the legitimacy of what was taught from a Maori perspective. Legitimacy of Maori Values was assessed alongside the given definitions of Tauroa (1980) and Ka'ai (1990), while the changes within the school structure were aligned with the contentions expressed by Banks (1988) and Irwin (1988,1989) as necessary for the manifestation of a bi-cultural perspective within a school structure. The implications of the study were that the Units had been successful in their provision for knowledge and learning from within a base in Maori Values, but that the utilization of the Units as a platform for promoting change within the over-all school structure was insufficient by itself, to bring about those changes necessary within the education structure, if New Zealand society is to become at least bi-cultural.
