Welcome to the Pigeonhole

The Pigeonhole is an interactive blog set up by the PPTA as a space for teachers to share ideas and have their say on educational issues 

There will be a number of contributors and you are all invited to have your say in the comments section. Topics will range from the latest issues in education to lighthearted and quirky pieces on the world of secondary teachers. We do accept contributions and ideas but they must comply with the PPTA blog guidelines http://wingedrodent.edublogs.org/about/ and will be subject to moderation. 

We begin with a critique of Education Minister Chris Carter’s parrotlike stance on school funding from an interview with Radio New Zealand’s Kathryn Ryan, and look forward to your feedback.
