In this podcast episode, we explore the state of education in New Zealand, both at the school and university levels. Drawing from our own experiences, we discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the current education system and the challenges that students face in their pursuit of higher education. We delve into the issue of whether students are adequately prepared for university-level learning, with some arguing that there has been a decline in educational standards in recent years.

Join us as we analyse the state of education in New Zealand and consider what needs to be done to ensure that students are equipped with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed in the 21st century.
