Muddle in the mainstream: Maori language education policy in mainstream schools. Lourie, M. New Zealand Journal of Educational Studies, 48(1):6–18, 2013. abstract bibtex This paper examines the relationship between biculturalism and the purpose of Maori language education in mainstream schools for non-Mäori students, as it is expressed through policy statements and practice drivers. The question of whether bilingualism is an ideal for all New Zealanders, or only for those of Maori ethnicity, is particularly ambiguous. I suggest that this is because policy continues to attempt to accommodate two increasingly disparate understandings of biculturalism. In curriculum documents the purpose of learning te reo Mäori for Maori students is presented as contributing to the development of a Mäori ethnic identity, while for non-Mäori the relationship between the Mäori language and their own identity is disregarded.
