Overview
The history and development of the Māori language. Along with its cultural context and consequences, various contemporary issues facing the language will be addressed.
This paper serves as an introduction to the issues and representations of two major themes that are interrelated: the history of Māori in education and the history and status of the Māori language in education. It will cover a time span from 1816 to the present day; from the inception of Western education by the missionaries to the Māori Renaissance, including indigenous assertions of sovereignty.
