Episode: What's next for schools now the decile system is gone?
Description: Aotearoa’s school decile system has been scrapped.   In its place we now have an equity index that will change how the distribution of funding to schools works.  This will give most schools a funding boost, but there are also those that will be left short-changed.  So what problem is the Government trying to fix here?
