In 1950, in a commentary on the achievements of Māori primary-school children and their teachers during the mid-1930s, the then Senior Inspector of Māori schools wrote : "Bilingualism is not the aim of Māori school service...The teaching and use of Māori language has been specifically excluded from the Māori primary Schools."
