And now I can't stop. I've gone deep 69 00:03:04,653 --> 00:03:06,853 Speaker 3: into the archive. I think I've gone back to January 70 00:03:06,933 --> 00:03:09,693 Speaker 3: twenty twenty four. The mini is so you can't stop 71 00:03:09,693 --> 00:03:11,093 Speaker 3: at one, You've got to do twenty of them. 72 00:03:11,373 --> 00:03:13,692 Speaker 2: Yeah, but strands is great where you've got a sort 73 00:03:13,693 --> 00:03:15,933 Speaker 2: of list, you know, you find all the words and 74 00:03:16,933 --> 00:03:18,373 Speaker 2: there are a pile of words on a theme and 75 00:03:18,373 --> 00:03:20,493 Speaker 2: it's very it's very good. But that's not what I 76 00:03:20,493 --> 00:03:22,973 Speaker 2: want to talk about. What I'm saying is I go 77 00:03:23,013 --> 00:03:24,613 Speaker 2: into that and the I get dragged into social media 78 00:03:24,613 --> 00:03:26,613 Speaker 2: because something pops up. But this is this is what 79 00:03:26,693 --> 00:03:31,133 Speaker 2: popped up in this in this feed. One day you 80 00:03:31,252 --> 00:03:34,093 Speaker 2: burned a CD for the last time without even realizing it. 81 00:03:34,293 --> 00:03:35,333 Speaker 3: Oh, that is deep. 82 00:03:35,853 --> 00:03:39,013 Speaker 2: That is deep, and it's you know, that's sort of 83 00:03:39,053 --> 00:03:41,173 Speaker 2: a deeper meaning. The one day you do everything for 84 00:03:41,213 --> 00:03:44,053 Speaker 2: the last time will be one day where you drive 85 00:03:44,093 --> 00:03:46,693 Speaker 2: that commute to work. That's that last day of the job, 86 00:03:47,093 --> 00:03:49,173 Speaker 2: last time you've a brushed your teeth, eat a pie, 87 00:03:49,453 --> 00:03:51,773 Speaker 2: walk to the shops. You know, if your parents live 88 00:03:51,773 --> 00:03:54,293 Speaker 2: in a different town, there's going to be a last 89 00:03:54,333 --> 00:03:56,613 Speaker 2: time you ever see your parents. Yeah, and you know 90 00:03:56,613 --> 00:03:59,053 Speaker 2: that might only be six more times that you see them. 91 00:03:59,373 --> 00:04:02,293 Speaker 2: So it's the scarcity of life. It's like the Zen 92 00:04:02,333 --> 00:04:06,213 Speaker 2: Buddhism concept of the cherry blossom. It's scarcity makes it special. 93 00:04:06,733 --> 00:04:09,733 Speaker 2: So everything you do one day do for the last time. 94 00:04:09,853 --> 00:04:13,413 Speaker 2: So take notice to enjoy every part of your life. 95 00:04:13,493 --> 00:04:15,533 Speaker 3: It's a beautiful start to the show.

That every moment of your children 102 00:04:29,213 --> 00:04:31,053 Speaker 2: as they're growing up is so so important and it 103 00:04:31,093 --> 00:04:32,893 Speaker 2: will go away one day. Yeah, you know, this is 104 00:04:32,933 --> 00:04:34,933 Speaker 2: the last time that you put that car seat into 105 00:04:34,933 --> 00:04:36,933 Speaker 2: the car with your kids, before they can climb and 106 00:04:36,933 --> 00:04:38,933 Speaker 2: buy themselves and put their own seat bet on. And 107 00:04:38,933 --> 00:04:41,173 Speaker 2: then you look back when they're moving out and you go, oh, 108 00:04:41,333 --> 00:04:44,293 Speaker 2: those days, yeah, so so wonderful. 109 00:04:43,853 --> 00:04:47,453 Speaker 3: Beautiful philosophy.

Lord, 117 00:05:08,933 --> 00:05:11,453 Speaker 3: in a wide ranging interview with Day's magazine, has said 118 00:05:11,493 --> 00:05:14,133 Speaker 3: she's a bad key. We asked about her relationship with 119 00:05:14,173 --> 00:05:16,893 Speaker 3: New Zealand, as she said she misses this country a 120 00:05:16,933 --> 00:05:19,533 Speaker 3: lot and is making it a priority to come back 121 00:05:19,573 --> 00:05:22,013 Speaker 3: here a lot more often. But when questioned about whether 122 00:05:22,053 --> 00:05:23,653 Speaker 3: she liked Lord of the Rings, she admitted she'd never 123 00:05:23,693 --> 00:05:26,213 Speaker 3: seen the movies or TV series or read the books 124 00:05:26,373 --> 00:05:28,013 Speaker 3: and said, I know that makes me a bad key. 125 00:05:28,053 --> 00:05:29,613 Speaker 2: We and you probably thought, you say, this is the 126 00:05:29,693 --> 00:05:31,133 Speaker 2: last time you're going to hear the story. That was 127 00:05:31,173 --> 00:05:32,853 Speaker 2: going to be the last time you'd ever hear it, 128 00:05:32,893 --> 00:05:34,533 Speaker 2: But we didn't get around to doing it yesterday because 129 00:05:34,533 --> 00:05:36,133 Speaker 2: we got too busy with the other story. So we're 130 00:05:36,133 --> 00:05:39,693 Speaker 2: doing it today. So what do you have to do 131 00:05:39,853 --> 00:05:41,573 Speaker 2: to be a good key? We what iced the full key? 132 00:05:41,573 --> 00:05:46,893 Speaker 2: We experience all black games, backyards, crickets, hung pie, source, 133 00:05:46,973 --> 00:05:49,013 Speaker 2: covered pie, watching all of the Rings. We're going to 134 00:05:49,053 --> 00:05:50,333 Speaker 2: get do that after three yep. 135 00:05:50,413 --> 00:05:53,293 Speaker 3: Looking forward to that after two o'clock, the Apple iPhone 136 00:05:53,413 --> 00:05:57,093 Speaker 3: seventeen lineup announced. The tech giant unveiled four new models 137 00:05:57,133 --> 00:05:59,573 Speaker 3: that mark the latest additions to its marquee product. So 138 00:05:59,653 --> 00:06:02,373 Speaker 3: that includes the introduction of what they're calling the iPhone Air, 139 00:06:02,533 --> 00:06:06,453 Speaker 3: the thinnest smartphone ever, and it's new as phones will 140 00:06:06,493 --> 00:06:08,933 Speaker 3: come with better cameras, long lasting, better is a handful 141 00:06:08,933 --> 00:06:13,253 Speaker 3: of other upgrades across the board. Traditionally, people have absolutely 142 00:06:13,293 --> 00:06:16,293 Speaker 3: fizzed for these sort of Announcementso. 143 00:06:15,413 --> 00:06:18,933 Speaker 2: Care and when did we stop caring? As I say before, 144 00:06:18,973 --> 00:06:22,013 Speaker 2: I don't even know what number my iPhone is. I 145 00:06:22,093 --> 00:06:23,973 Speaker 2: used to be so excited about this. I used to 146 00:06:24,013 --> 00:06:27,693 Speaker 2: watch the keynote addresses. I used to be absolutely obsessed 147 00:06:27,693 --> 00:06:30,013 Speaker 2: with the new tech coming out. But for some reason, 148 00:06:30,133 --> 00:06:32,653 Speaker 2: I think it's a lot to do with a lot 149 00:06:32,653 --> 00:06:34,573 Speaker 2: of the stuff we're doing now being online. So it's 150 00:06:34,613 --> 00:06:36,813 Speaker 2: not really within the phone. The phone's got enough processing 151 00:06:36,853 --> 00:06:39,173 Speaker 2: and power to do whatever you needed to do, so 152 00:06:39,253 --> 00:06:43,013 Speaker 2: the jumps aren't as big. But do you care? When 153 00:06:43,013 --> 00:06:45,093 Speaker 2: did we stop caring? The one thing that we were 154 00:06:45,133 --> 00:06:47,373 Speaker 2: saying before that we do care about is that the 155 00:06:48,213 --> 00:06:51,773 Speaker 2: ear pods, which translate in real time between languages that's 156 00:06:51,773 --> 00:06:52,173 Speaker 2: pretty cool. 157 00:06:52,293 --> 00:06:55,413 Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, that is after two o'clock. But right now, 158 00:06:55,533 --> 00:06:57,893 Speaker 3: let's have a chat about new Ministry of Education data. 159 00:06:57,933 --> 00:07:01,293 Speaker 3: It shows three hundred and seventy six secondary school students 160 00:07:01,453 --> 00:07:05,413 Speaker 3: were granted an early leaving exemption last year. That is 161 00:07:05,413 --> 00:07:08,653 Speaker 3: the highest number of approvals since two thousand and seven. 162 00:07:08,773 --> 00:07:12,053 Speaker 3: Ninety percent of them chose to continue studying outside of school, 163 00:07:12,093 --> 00:07:14,293 Speaker 3: while the other one hundred and twenty nine students will 164 00:07:14,293 --> 00:07:17,093 Speaker 3: approved to go into full time employment. But that is 165 00:07:17,493 --> 00:07:21,133 Speaker 3: some big numbers and the biggest in twenty two years. 166 00:07:21,213 --> 00:07:22,613 Speaker 3: So that's what we want to have a chat about 167 00:07:22,693 --> 00:07:26,453 Speaker 3: leaving school at fifteen sixteen years old.

If my kids had said to me, I'm 172 00:07:32,253 --> 00:07:34,333 Speaker 2: leaving school at fifteen, I don't think I'd been able 173 00:07:34,333 --> 00:07:36,053 Speaker 2: to handle it because in my head, one of the 174 00:07:36,053 --> 00:07:37,453 Speaker 2: things I to do as a parent is getting them 175 00:07:37,493 --> 00:07:40,173 Speaker 2: right through school.

Matt Heath and Tyler Adams afternoons used 210 00:09:12,413 --> 00:09:13,053 Speaker 1: talks they'd. 211 00:09:12,933 --> 00:09:17,053 Speaker 3: Be It is sixteen past one. So an increasing number 212 00:09:17,093 --> 00:09:20,573 Speaker 3: of students leaving secondary school at fifteen and sixteen. It's 213 00:09:20,573 --> 00:09:23,333 Speaker 3: the highest number that have left to go into further education, 214 00:09:23,892 --> 00:09:26,613 Speaker 3: some into full time employment since two thousand and seven. 215 00:09:27,653 --> 00:09:29,173 Speaker 2: Yeah, but is it a good idea?

Daniel, 217 00:09:33,093 --> 00:09:34,053 Speaker 2: Welcome to the show. 218 00:09:35,132 --> 00:09:36,213 Speaker 5: How are you doing, guys? 219 00:09:36,653 --> 00:09:38,052 Speaker 3: Very well? What's your thoughts? 220 00:09:38,813 --> 00:09:42,773 Speaker 5: Yeah, So I've been around the sector, the education sector 221 00:09:42,773 --> 00:09:45,693 Speaker 5: since I left school about twenty five years ago, and 222 00:09:46,973 --> 00:09:50,093 Speaker 5: so I do have a little bit of insight into 223 00:09:50,173 --> 00:09:54,772 Speaker 5: the subject of today and my thought of kids leaving 224 00:09:54,813 --> 00:10:01,693 Speaker 5: at fifteen and sixteen should be in individual cases. I 225 00:10:01,732 --> 00:10:04,653 Speaker 5: think it should be it's not such a bad thing 226 00:10:04,732 --> 00:10:08,453 Speaker 5: for kids to leave school at fifteen and sixteen to 227 00:10:08,693 --> 00:10:12,493 Speaker 5: pursue a career or you know, and something because we 228 00:10:12,533 --> 00:10:16,252 Speaker 5: all know that everybody doesn't want to go to university 229 00:10:16,293 --> 00:10:18,533 Speaker 5: after high school, you know, not everybody wants to go 230 00:10:18,573 --> 00:10:22,973 Speaker 5: to social re education. And uh, we've heard this term. 231 00:10:23,852 --> 00:10:26,893 Speaker 5: We are a product of our of our environment. And 232 00:10:26,973 --> 00:10:29,613 Speaker 5: a lot of kids that I've seen at firsteen have 233 00:10:29,773 --> 00:10:32,492 Speaker 5: matured enough because of the environment they come from. Maybe 234 00:10:32,492 --> 00:10:35,173 Speaker 5: they had to grow up faster and look after their 235 00:10:35,293 --> 00:10:37,612 Speaker 5: their siblings or help out them, you know, help about 236 00:10:37,612 --> 00:10:41,813 Speaker 5: mom and dad. You know, it's not not because maybe 237 00:10:41,933 --> 00:10:44,213 Speaker 5: maybe dad is sick, you know, too sick to work, 238 00:10:44,293 --> 00:10:46,612 Speaker 5: or mom is too sick to work. So these kids 239 00:10:46,612 --> 00:10:50,053 Speaker 5: are forced to grow up faster and mature faster. So 240 00:10:51,333 --> 00:10:55,012 Speaker 5: for having having a well life should be full of challenges, 241 00:10:55,093 --> 00:10:58,292 Speaker 5: it shouldn't be full of obstacles. And to have this 242 00:10:58,293 --> 00:11:02,813 Speaker 5: this seventeen year old uh, you know, legal age to 243 00:11:02,892 --> 00:11:05,533 Speaker 5: be you know included as part of the law. I 244 00:11:05,573 --> 00:11:07,973 Speaker 5: think for a kid who who thinks that he's mature 245 00:11:08,093 --> 00:11:11,973 Speaker 5: enough fifteen sixteen to leave school and enter the workforce 246 00:11:12,012 --> 00:11:14,612 Speaker 5: to help buy the family already there. If he has 247 00:11:14,612 --> 00:11:18,293 Speaker 5: to wait till seventeen, he's already losing in life because 248 00:11:18,333 --> 00:11:20,933 Speaker 5: he has enough to go. He tells him, Oh, you 249 00:11:21,012 --> 00:11:22,813 Speaker 5: can't leave school. You can't help mom and dad. You 250 00:11:22,852 --> 00:11:24,573 Speaker 5: have to stay here because the government says you have 251 00:11:24,612 --> 00:11:27,732 Speaker 5: to stay to your seventeen. And I think it should 252 00:11:27,773 --> 00:11:31,213 Speaker 5: be an individual case because some kids are fifteen are 253 00:11:31,333 --> 00:11:34,652 Speaker 5: very mature enough to look after their younger siblings. To 254 00:11:34,813 --> 00:11:35,413 Speaker 5: some kids, if. 255 00:11:35,453 --> 00:11:38,813 Speaker 2: Anyone, did you stay at school right till the end, 256 00:11:38,892 --> 00:11:39,732 Speaker 2: right to the your thirteen? 257 00:11:39,933 --> 00:11:43,012 Speaker 5: I stayed at school right so you're thirteen because I 258 00:11:43,132 --> 00:11:45,573 Speaker 5: enjoyed school. But I had some friends in my class. 259 00:11:45,852 --> 00:11:48,253 Speaker 5: He just came to school because they have to come 260 00:11:48,293 --> 00:11:51,893 Speaker 5: to school. No school work done, you know, nothing done, 261 00:11:52,053 --> 00:11:54,493 Speaker 5: just just there, just because the law says you have 262 00:11:54,573 --> 00:11:55,333 Speaker 5: to stay at school. 263 00:11:55,492 --> 00:11:58,173 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's interesting. I think some people don't, you know. 264 00:11:58,213 --> 00:12:00,693 Speaker 2: You say some people are ready to start life earlier 265 00:12:00,773 --> 00:12:03,053 Speaker 2: and get out there and start earning like an adult. 266 00:12:03,173 --> 00:12:06,652 Speaker 2: I think some people. I think even going through university 267 00:12:06,693 --> 00:12:08,813 Speaker 2: for some people, that's just putting off becoming an adult 268 00:12:09,252 --> 00:12:11,532 Speaker 2: because you know, you can stand in an institution and 269 00:12:11,573 --> 00:12:15,012 Speaker 2: you don't have to make any decisions just yet. Yeah, 270 00:12:15,533 --> 00:12:19,693 Speaker 2: and so sometimes it's just just putting all of it's 271 00:12:19,732 --> 00:12:21,252 Speaker 2: putting off. I mean you can be putting off life. 272 00:12:21,252 --> 00:12:25,573 Speaker 2: For some people, put off life will be thirty yeah. 273 00:12:24,413 --> 00:12:27,453 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, because I think that that we're at 274 00:12:27,453 --> 00:12:29,653 Speaker 5: the stage we're in twenty twenty five, we've you know, 275 00:12:29,693 --> 00:12:33,013 Speaker 5: we've experienced life as humans for this long that we 276 00:12:33,012 --> 00:12:36,333 Speaker 5: we we should you know, stop stop covering everybody in 277 00:12:36,333 --> 00:12:38,892 Speaker 5: the same umbrella, you know, putting out an umbrella and 278 00:12:38,973 --> 00:12:41,532 Speaker 5: saying you have to wait till you're seventeen. It's not 279 00:12:41,573 --> 00:12:44,093 Speaker 5: really fair. I find if it's the legal age for 280 00:12:44,573 --> 00:12:47,653 Speaker 5: drinking and stuff like that, that's understandable, you know, but 281 00:12:47,813 --> 00:12:51,252 Speaker 5: stuff like you know, stuff that can be like judged individually. 282 00:12:51,293 --> 00:12:53,292 Speaker 5: You know, if the if the parents think that their 283 00:12:53,413 --> 00:12:56,252 Speaker 5: kid is mature enough to leave school of fifteen, then 284 00:12:56,533 --> 00:12:58,653 Speaker 5: I don't think there should be an obstacle that stops 285 00:12:58,653 --> 00:13:02,093 Speaker 5: them from doing that, because for that particular kid, he's 286 00:13:02,132 --> 00:13:04,093 Speaker 5: looking at life a really like, man, is this what 287 00:13:04,252 --> 00:13:06,813 Speaker 5: like is gonna be about? IM gonna be demanded and 288 00:13:06,933 --> 00:13:08,973 Speaker 5: you know, have to follow these rules. Then by the 289 00:13:09,012 --> 00:13:12,533 Speaker 5: time they're seventeen, really they've probably lost drive, you know, 290 00:13:12,573 --> 00:13:14,492 Speaker 5: half of the drive their head to help out their 291 00:13:14,573 --> 00:13:15,172 Speaker 5: parents and stuff. 292 00:13:15,293 --> 00:13:15,732 Speaker 3: Very true. 293 00:13:15,773 --> 00:13:18,612 Speaker 5: Daniel should just be en it just should be judging 294 00:13:18,732 --> 00:13:22,252 Speaker 5: individual cases because there are some people who probably want 295 00:13:22,293 --> 00:13:24,373 Speaker 5: to leave at fifteen.

But what do you say, are you facing 339 00:15:02,053 --> 00:15:03,733 Speaker 3: this with your own children at the moment if they're 340 00:15:03,773 --> 00:15:05,893 Speaker 3: not enduring school, are they asking to leave early or 341 00:15:05,973 --> 00:15:08,013 Speaker 3: do you think it should be mandated that they have 342 00:15:08,173 --> 00:15:09,973 Speaker 3: to to be there until thus seventeen? 343 00:15:10,053 --> 00:15:12,213 Speaker 2: What do you think of that's from pp t A 344 00:15:12,453 --> 00:15:15,493 Speaker 2: president Chris Appercrombie. I think it's just a symptom of 345 00:15:15,653 --> 00:15:18,373 Speaker 2: very stretched secondary sector and the inability of it to 346 00:15:18,453 --> 00:15:20,373 Speaker 2: currently meet the needs of some of their students. So 347 00:15:20,533 --> 00:15:23,412 Speaker 2: they're looking at other places to meet that. That's that's 348 00:15:23,453 --> 00:15:25,773 Speaker 2: a big jump, isn't it, And that's why people are leaving. 349 00:15:27,973 --> 00:15:31,453 Speaker 2: I think they're leaving because they see opportunities at politic 350 00:15:31,613 --> 00:15:37,533 Speaker 2: and vocational education the stretched sceneries. So I see, because 351 00:15:37,533 --> 00:15:41,373 Speaker 2: he's the PPTA president, he's just trying to lobby for 352 00:15:41,493 --> 00:15:41,973 Speaker 2: more stuff. 353 00:15:42,853 --> 00:15:45,573 Speaker 3: They've spoken like a union. Isn't it anything to twist 354 00:15:45,613 --> 00:15:49,253 Speaker 3: it back to what they're asking for now? Charm on, Chris, come. 355 00:15:49,133 --> 00:15:52,213 Speaker 2: I might leave school and go in to go to 356 00:15:52,293 --> 00:15:55,333 Speaker 2: a politic because of the stressed secondary sector. 357 00:15:55,653 --> 00:16:00,653 Speaker 3: Yeah right, Grace, sell you this afternoon.

Sorry, Colin, we had to jump away 665 00:32:00,853 --> 00:32:04,573 Speaker 2: from that presser, but we were talking about you leaving 666 00:32:04,613 --> 00:32:05,493 Speaker 2: school when you're fifteen. 667 00:32:06,853 --> 00:32:09,773 Speaker 12: Yeah, yeah, So I think between that and now, it's 668 00:32:09,813 --> 00:32:13,133 Speaker 12: the availability of the work. You know, if the kids 669 00:32:13,213 --> 00:32:17,173 Speaker 12: can leave and be able to support themselves, not rely 670 00:32:17,253 --> 00:32:18,893 Speaker 12: on mom and dad or the doll I mean, I've 671 00:32:18,973 --> 00:32:22,693 Speaker 12: never had a day's doll or any government assistant there 672 00:32:22,813 --> 00:32:25,013 Speaker 12: in my life. I've never had a day off work. 673 00:32:25,973 --> 00:32:29,653 Speaker 12: You know, I still work full time driving. I'm seventy 674 00:32:29,733 --> 00:32:34,133 Speaker 12: one now. I work between here in Australia, three months here, 675 00:32:34,213 --> 00:32:38,293 Speaker 12: three months over there. But if they can support themselves 676 00:32:38,373 --> 00:32:40,333 Speaker 12: and that sort of stuff, all good luck to him, 677 00:32:40,333 --> 00:32:43,453 Speaker 12: because you know, schooling and stuff for everybody. I mean, 678 00:32:43,813 --> 00:32:46,173 Speaker 12: I had a variety of jobs. I did military for 679 00:32:46,413 --> 00:32:49,293 Speaker 12: six years, I ran my own business for forty years, 680 00:32:49,373 --> 00:32:54,933 Speaker 12: and trucks. My father he left school at thirteen way back, 681 00:32:55,133 --> 00:32:58,173 Speaker 12: you know, obviously, many many years ago. He ended up 682 00:32:58,213 --> 00:33:01,813 Speaker 12: as a very respected farm manager. And when he retired 683 00:33:01,813 --> 00:33:04,813 Speaker 12: from farm manager, he ended up buying two motels worked 684 00:33:04,853 --> 00:33:07,173 Speaker 12: when I lived in at least the other one. So 685 00:33:07,973 --> 00:33:11,293 Speaker 12: you know, education is not the be all and end all. 686 00:33:11,373 --> 00:33:14,013 Speaker 12: I mean, it's it is important, and you know, if 687 00:33:14,053 --> 00:33:18,093 Speaker 12: you're a person who needs or requires that education to 688 00:33:18,173 --> 00:33:20,533 Speaker 12: survive or get ahead or get it into particular work, 689 00:33:21,453 --> 00:33:23,893 Speaker 12: that's great. At two of my granddaughters are going through 690 00:33:24,053 --> 00:33:26,493 Speaker 12: university through Otaga doing medical degrees. 691 00:33:26,933 --> 00:33:29,493 Speaker 2: Wow, at the moment, their. 692 00:33:28,933 --> 00:33:32,293 Speaker 12: Father's paying for their father, our son, he's paying for 693 00:33:32,413 --> 00:33:35,053 Speaker 12: all of their tuition.

But you know, it's it's I think 699 00:33:55,373 --> 00:33:57,373 Speaker 12: it's harder these days to the young ones to leave 700 00:33:58,173 --> 00:34:01,173 Speaker 12: and become self sufficient.

And this 897 00:42:21,133 --> 00:42:24,413 Speaker 15: supports there and there is depending on the school I 898 00:42:24,493 --> 00:42:28,053 Speaker 15: went to. I went to Lombay College.

God, it's hard to get 919 00:43:17,733 --> 00:43:19,093 Speaker 2: out of bed when you're a teenage boy. 920 00:43:20,253 --> 00:43:22,213 Speaker 25: Definitely, sure, it hurts. 921 00:43:22,333 --> 00:43:24,933 Speaker 2: It's actually physically hurts to get out of bed. 922 00:43:25,093 --> 00:43:27,333 Speaker 3: Yeah, if you're up before midday as a teenage boy, 923 00:43:27,373 --> 00:43:28,093 Speaker 3: you're doing pretty well. 924 00:43:28,253 --> 00:43:30,093 Speaker 2: I'd get up from because we lived on the farm, 925 00:43:30,173 --> 00:43:32,493 Speaker 2: had to be you know, catched right into town with 926 00:43:32,573 --> 00:43:35,413 Speaker 2: my dad to the buses, and I'd be like, he'd 927 00:43:35,453 --> 00:43:37,053 Speaker 2: be honking the horn and I'd just be putting my 928 00:43:37,173 --> 00:43:40,813 Speaker 2: uniform on it. Actually, it was like you'd been tranquilizer darted, 929 00:43:41,693 --> 00:43:44,772 Speaker 2: just trying to walk down across the from my room 930 00:43:44,813 --> 00:43:48,853 Speaker 2: to the car. But so you stayed right to the 931 00:43:48,933 --> 00:43:49,813 Speaker 2: end of school, did you, Quinn? 932 00:43:50,613 --> 00:43:54,453 Speaker 15: No, No, actually didn't. My left into Form six. I 933 00:43:54,573 --> 00:43:56,813 Speaker 15: got my insare level two and I got out of 934 00:43:56,893 --> 00:44:01,253 Speaker 15: there because I didn't enjoy it either. But I recognized 935 00:44:01,293 --> 00:44:04,733 Speaker 15: skills that I still use to this day from school. 936 00:44:04,813 --> 00:44:07,253 Speaker 15: And when I mean skills doesn't mean I'm using algebra 937 00:44:07,453 --> 00:44:09,493 Speaker 15: on a daily base. Is what I mean by skills 938 00:44:09,653 --> 00:44:13,813 Speaker 15: is life lessons, you know, from my teachers. And that's 939 00:44:13,813 --> 00:44:17,333 Speaker 15: another thing too. I think what makes schools school enjoyable 940 00:44:18,333 --> 00:44:20,453 Speaker 15: is the teachers. You know, you've got a good teacher, 941 00:44:20,653 --> 00:44:21,373 Speaker 15: you're gonna love it. 942 00:44:21,973 --> 00:44:25,172 Speaker 3: So yeah, yeah, And a lot of people would agree 943 00:44:25,213 --> 00:44:26,813 Speaker 3: with what you just said there, but it sounds I 944 00:44:26,893 --> 00:44:29,173 Speaker 3: mean it's for those kids out there and lot yourself, 945 00:44:29,213 --> 00:44:30,652 Speaker 3: you are, you left a bit early. But if you're 946 00:44:30,693 --> 00:44:33,813 Speaker 3: fifteen sixteen, school's not for you. But you've got that 947 00:44:34,053 --> 00:44:36,653 Speaker 3: work ethic or you've got that drive on something you 948 00:44:36,773 --> 00:44:38,893 Speaker 3: want to do. That's the key part, right, Rather than 949 00:44:38,973 --> 00:44:41,373 Speaker 3: the fifteen and sixteen year olds they don't like school, 950 00:44:41,413 --> 00:44:42,933 Speaker 3: but they're not too sure what they want to do. 951 00:44:43,413 --> 00:44:44,933 Speaker 3: Maybe they just want to stay at home for a 952 00:44:44,973 --> 00:44:48,772 Speaker 3: few days. It's not kind of you know, that's that's 953 00:44:48,813 --> 00:44:50,573 Speaker 3: not the drive you need to actually succeed if you 954 00:44:50,653 --> 00:44:51,053 Speaker 3: leave early. 955 00:44:52,093 --> 00:44:54,653 Speaker 15: Definitely differently, Like, don't get me wrong, I feel like 956 00:44:54,813 --> 00:44:59,373 Speaker 15: if you can write a report and you have work 957 00:44:59,453 --> 00:45:01,933 Speaker 15: ethic and you'll let's say you just turn sixteen one 958 00:45:02,013 --> 00:45:03,733 Speaker 15: hundred percent, I think you should go for it. But 959 00:45:04,493 --> 00:45:06,613 Speaker 15: at the same time, if you can't read a book, 960 00:45:06,933 --> 00:45:12,212 Speaker 15: and like I'm not talking about an extensive, super comprehensive book, 961 00:45:12,253 --> 00:45:15,172 Speaker 15: I'm just talking about like a basic novel or read 962 00:45:15,213 --> 00:45:18,413 Speaker 15: a basic work report, you need to stay you know. 963 00:45:18,653 --> 00:45:18,973 Speaker 26: There we go. 964 00:45:19,133 --> 00:45:20,933 Speaker 2: We talked about that for quite a long time yesterday, 965 00:45:20,933 --> 00:45:22,652 Speaker 2: and Quinn, thank you so much for being a young 966 00:45:22,733 --> 00:45:27,213 Speaker 2: person that translated years into forms for some people, because 967 00:45:27,613 --> 00:45:31,692 Speaker 2: good Man knowing that year thirteen is seventh form.

He was a bit 1003 00:46:57,693 --> 00:47:01,453 Speaker 23: easier when he reaped up to school in his sport 1004 00:47:01,573 --> 00:47:04,293 Speaker 23: and did he was just sweeping the falls, and they 1005 00:47:04,373 --> 00:47:06,093 Speaker 23: got them because they he was quite talented, and they've 1006 00:47:06,093 --> 00:47:07,853 Speaker 23: got him doing a lot of different jobs. And then 1007 00:47:08,093 --> 00:47:11,693 Speaker 23: they'd to him getting a lead to an engineering marine 1008 00:47:11,733 --> 00:47:15,253 Speaker 23: engineering job, and he ended up in apprenticeship as a 1009 00:47:15,293 --> 00:47:20,213 Speaker 23: marine engineer, which he qualified with and he now works 1010 00:47:20,453 --> 00:47:23,253 Speaker 23: in the gold mines and Eka Matilla, so he's an 1011 00:47:23,333 --> 00:47:25,933 Speaker 23: engineer down there and such all the equipment. 1012 00:47:26,213 --> 00:47:28,573 Speaker 21: So what was done very well for himselves. 1013 00:47:28,653 --> 00:47:31,973 Speaker 2: What led him to leave school after ncee A was that? 1014 00:47:32,853 --> 00:47:33,773 Speaker 2: Was that driven by him? 1015 00:47:34,893 --> 00:47:37,093 Speaker 23: It was, Yeah, he was very bored and I said 1016 00:47:37,133 --> 00:47:39,692 Speaker 23: to him, well, if you're going to be bored, you're 1017 00:47:39,693 --> 00:47:41,973 Speaker 23: going to have to find something to keep your mind occupied. 1018 00:47:42,053 --> 00:47:44,813 Speaker 23: And engineering was one of those things that had to 1019 00:47:44,853 --> 00:47:48,293 Speaker 23: think on the spot and calculate. And you know, he 1020 00:47:48,413 --> 00:47:50,853 Speaker 23: was very good at engineering when he was at Nelson Boys. 1021 00:47:50,853 --> 00:47:53,453 Speaker 23: He's quite clever at doing things like that. So it 1022 00:47:53,573 --> 00:47:56,133 Speaker 23: was just a natural progression really that that's what he 1023 00:47:56,253 --> 00:47:56,773 Speaker 23: wanted to do. 1024 00:47:59,173 --> 00:48:01,853 Speaker 3: School now some college to my alma mater there you go. 1025 00:48:02,173 --> 00:48:05,493 Speaker 23: Yeah, and the youngest one, the youngest son, he's just 1026 00:48:05,733 --> 00:48:09,893 Speaker 23: twenty and he was the same We went through lockdown 1027 00:48:09,973 --> 00:48:12,373 Speaker 23: and everything, and it was really difficult time for honey. 1028 00:48:12,413 --> 00:48:15,293 Speaker 23: They didn't cope with the schooling it all. I was 1029 00:48:15,333 --> 00:48:17,493 Speaker 23: trying to teach him and it was just you know, 1030 00:48:17,533 --> 00:48:19,853 Speaker 23: and we were at that stage we'd moved to Marlbourne, 1031 00:48:19,893 --> 00:48:23,053 Speaker 23: we were living quite remotely, so it was quite difficult 1032 00:48:23,613 --> 00:48:26,053 Speaker 23: and he just didn't he just didn't like going to school. 1033 00:48:26,093 --> 00:48:27,293 Speaker 23: And I said, well, you're going to have to get 1034 00:48:27,333 --> 00:48:29,973 Speaker 23: a decent job. You're not going on the doll And 1035 00:48:30,613 --> 00:48:34,533 Speaker 23: he just walked into a construction company and did that 1036 00:48:34,693 --> 00:48:38,373 Speaker 23: for three years. And he's left there and he's at 1037 00:48:38,413 --> 00:48:43,693 Speaker 23: politics doing a mechanical qualification and he's just landed himself 1038 00:48:43,773 --> 00:48:48,093 Speaker 23: a diesel mechanic job as an apprentice. Next well, we 1039 00:48:48,133 --> 00:48:49,853 Speaker 23: could start at the end of this year, but he's 1040 00:48:49,853 --> 00:48:52,133 Speaker 23: got a contract and everything this week to start that. 1041 00:48:52,453 --> 00:48:55,453 Speaker 2: So that's good. How much anger is he then the 1042 00:48:55,693 --> 00:48:59,773 Speaker 2: other brother that left in that years apart, because because 1043 00:48:59,933 --> 00:49:03,533 Speaker 2: just listening to you know, people talking about the top 1044 00:49:03,573 --> 00:49:05,973 Speaker 2: of the said, having a mentor that's done it before 1045 00:49:06,173 --> 00:49:09,613 Speaker 2: is a big part of people feeling bold enough to 1046 00:49:09,693 --> 00:49:11,013 Speaker 2: do it. So do you think the fact that your 1047 00:49:11,173 --> 00:49:13,973 Speaker 2: eldest son had already gone through it and it had 1048 00:49:14,053 --> 00:49:16,573 Speaker 2: left early and it had been successful. Do you think 1049 00:49:16,733 --> 00:49:19,493 Speaker 2: that made it more easier for you to deal with 1050 00:49:19,573 --> 00:49:21,732 Speaker 2: it for the younger son and easier for the younger 1051 00:49:21,813 --> 00:49:23,413 Speaker 2: son to make that decision. 1052 00:49:24,213 --> 00:49:24,773 Speaker 17: I think so. 1053 00:49:25,053 --> 00:49:25,252 Speaker 22: Yeah. 1054 00:49:25,373 --> 00:49:27,172 Speaker 23: So you know, like the twenty five year old, now 1055 00:49:27,613 --> 00:49:30,133 Speaker 23: he brought his first house at twenty two, so he 1056 00:49:30,653 --> 00:49:32,893 Speaker 23: you know, I mean it's pretty rare for kids, and 1057 00:49:34,933 --> 00:49:37,093 Speaker 23: him and his partner only been together very very short time, 1058 00:49:37,173 --> 00:49:38,933 Speaker 23: but they had enough to sort of go on with 1059 00:49:39,053 --> 00:49:42,693 Speaker 23: a thirty thirty five percent posit and still had savings. So, 1060 00:49:43,373 --> 00:49:45,573 Speaker 23: you know, for kids at that age, at this time, 1061 00:49:46,333 --> 00:49:48,493 Speaker 23: the stage in their lives has done very very well. 1062 00:49:48,613 --> 00:49:48,773 Speaker 17: You know. 1063 00:49:49,493 --> 00:49:52,213 Speaker 23: Yeah, they're just clever kids, you know what I mean, 1064 00:49:52,253 --> 00:49:55,213 Speaker 23: They're smart.

Now, Patrick, very good afternoon to you. 1129 00:52:34,173 --> 00:52:36,013 Speaker 13: Good afternoon, how are you very good? 1130 00:52:36,093 --> 00:52:38,293 Speaker 2: Welcome back to the show. So we've just seen the 1131 00:52:38,373 --> 00:52:41,413 Speaker 2: highest number of early leaving exemptions since two thousand and seven. 1132 00:52:41,453 --> 00:52:43,732 Speaker 2: What do you think is driving more fifteen year olds 1133 00:52:43,773 --> 00:52:44,453 Speaker 2: to leave school? 1134 00:52:44,533 --> 00:52:48,373 Speaker 27: Patrick, Well, it's interestingly I've just really come across that 1135 00:52:48,573 --> 00:52:51,333 Speaker 27: story today as well. I suppose like everyone else, but 1136 00:52:51,773 --> 00:52:53,773 Speaker 27: I suppose on to look at the actual number. It's 1137 00:52:54,013 --> 00:52:55,893 Speaker 27: a it's not a huge number when you think of 1138 00:52:55,973 --> 00:52:59,893 Speaker 27: the number of secondary student students we have in the country, right, 1139 00:53:00,093 --> 00:53:02,333 Speaker 27: I think we've got something like two fifty three hundred 1140 00:53:02,373 --> 00:53:05,013 Speaker 27: thousand students, So it's a it's a real drop in 1141 00:53:05,053 --> 00:53:07,813 Speaker 27: the bucket there. I suppose from my perspective, without having 1142 00:53:07,893 --> 00:53:11,373 Speaker 27: dug two deep into the into the numbers or behind 1143 00:53:11,613 --> 00:53:14,812 Speaker 27: the stats, there is that if these youngsters are heading 1144 00:53:14,893 --> 00:53:20,253 Speaker 27: into purposeful post secondary environment work further study, I mean, 1145 00:53:20,293 --> 00:53:22,133 Speaker 27: that's really it's a real good news story. I mean, 1146 00:53:22,213 --> 00:53:25,093 Speaker 27: one of the big concerns we've had is across the 1147 00:53:25,133 --> 00:53:28,013 Speaker 27: country of students who are leaving without a qualification and 1148 00:53:28,133 --> 00:53:32,373 Speaker 27: then and they're not continuing any employment or training at all. 1149 00:53:32,613 --> 00:53:35,453 Speaker 27: And that's probably a much bigger concern. That's that's in 1150 00:53:35,653 --> 00:53:37,013 Speaker 27: the many thousands of students. 1151 00:53:37,693 --> 00:53:40,253 Speaker 2: What are kids and parents have to do, like admin 1152 00:53:40,373 --> 00:53:42,893 Speaker 2: wise with the school if their kids want to leave 1153 00:53:42,933 --> 00:53:45,213 Speaker 2: at fifteen, they can't just not turn up. They have 1154 00:53:45,333 --> 00:53:46,813 Speaker 2: to organize this things. 1155 00:53:46,933 --> 00:53:49,093 Speaker 27: Right, Well, I'll be in trouble if they don't turn up, 1156 00:53:49,653 --> 00:53:52,573 Speaker 27: but yeah, you're right. Look, they need to go through 1157 00:53:52,573 --> 00:53:54,652 Speaker 27: a process with the Ministry of Education and they're sort 1158 00:53:54,653 --> 00:53:56,493 Speaker 27: of a vetting process there and it'll come to the 1159 00:53:56,573 --> 00:54:00,733 Speaker 27: school for our opinion and our support for that, and 1160 00:54:00,893 --> 00:54:03,933 Speaker 27: with usually we put down some potential reasons why that 1161 00:54:04,093 --> 00:54:07,413 Speaker 27: might be. I mean, this is quite these are exceptional cases. 1162 00:54:07,493 --> 00:54:10,213 Speaker 27: It's not on a it's not a wide scale or 1163 00:54:11,293 --> 00:54:14,773 Speaker 27: you know, occurrence at all. And then it goes back 1164 00:54:14,813 --> 00:54:16,853 Speaker 27: to the Ministry and it's approved and those students can 1165 00:54:17,053 --> 00:54:18,533 Speaker 27: leave school before sixteen. 1166 00:54:19,373 --> 00:54:21,853 Speaker 3: So there's already been talk of increasing the leaving age 1167 00:54:21,893 --> 00:54:24,133 Speaker 3: to seventeen. Patrick, how would you feel about that? Would 1168 00:54:24,173 --> 00:54:28,853 Speaker 3: that be counterintuitive to ensuring fifteen sixteen year olds actually 1169 00:54:28,973 --> 00:54:31,973 Speaker 3: go on to better education if they decide to leave. 1170 00:54:32,813 --> 00:54:35,453 Speaker 27: Yeah, well, I think it's what they are doing if 1171 00:54:35,493 --> 00:54:38,053 Speaker 27: they are going to leave. So I think the staying 1172 00:54:38,253 --> 00:54:41,213 Speaker 27: at school, the incentive to stay at school obviously is 1173 00:54:41,293 --> 00:54:44,613 Speaker 27: the ideal, but you know it's not for everyone in 1174 00:54:44,773 --> 00:54:47,493 Speaker 27: terms of what different schools offer. You know, you've got 1175 00:54:47,533 --> 00:54:50,893 Speaker 27: to go to your local school zone school, and that's 1176 00:54:50,933 --> 00:54:53,573 Speaker 27: the rules law we have that school may not be 1177 00:54:53,693 --> 00:54:57,773 Speaker 27: totally suitable for a student. So, you know, raising the 1178 00:54:57,813 --> 00:55:00,053 Speaker 27: age of seventeen I think as aspirational. I think it's 1179 00:55:00,053 --> 00:55:03,613 Speaker 27: a good signal that we value more learning is better. 1180 00:55:04,253 --> 00:55:07,653 Speaker 27: But again, if those students aren't staying to seventeen, we 1181 00:55:07,773 --> 00:55:09,733 Speaker 27: need to know where they're going because if they're just 1182 00:55:09,853 --> 00:55:12,893 Speaker 27: going out to a pretty bleak future, you know, we 1183 00:55:13,213 --> 00:55:14,573 Speaker 27: pay for that, don't we Down the track? 1184 00:55:15,533 --> 00:55:17,493 Speaker 2: What do kids miss out? Do you think they miss something? 1185 00:55:17,573 --> 00:55:21,413 Speaker 2: Miss something even if it's you know, jumping off before 1186 00:55:21,613 --> 00:55:25,333 Speaker 2: year thirteen? Do they miss something in terms of development 1187 00:55:25,493 --> 00:55:28,573 Speaker 2: and I know, socializing and you know what the school 1188 00:55:28,573 --> 00:55:29,053 Speaker 2: has to offer. 1189 00:55:30,093 --> 00:55:33,133 Speaker 27: Well, I think there's huge opportunities as you move through 1190 00:55:33,173 --> 00:55:36,533 Speaker 27: a school into the senior school. You know what, if 1191 00:55:36,573 --> 00:55:38,653 Speaker 27: you're engaged in your school, there. 1192 00:55:38,373 --> 00:55:39,373 Speaker 2: Are incredible opportunities. 1193 00:55:39,373 --> 00:55:43,293 Speaker 27: There's leadership opportunities, there's the mentoring of the younger students. 1194 00:55:44,693 --> 00:55:48,173 Speaker 27: The relationship of a school with it senior students evolves, 1195 00:55:48,213 --> 00:55:51,373 Speaker 27: doesn't it. We handle our year nine students a little 1196 00:55:51,373 --> 00:55:54,373 Speaker 27: bit different than we might our year twelve and thirteen students, 1197 00:55:54,413 --> 00:55:56,493 Speaker 27: and that's just a part of the school. I really 1198 00:55:56,573 --> 00:55:59,853 Speaker 27: enjoy is watching students grow and develop and mature through 1199 00:55:59,893 --> 00:56:02,252 Speaker 27: the system. And you know they are they are great 1200 00:56:02,373 --> 00:56:04,493 Speaker 27: young adults by the time they are leaving school. So 1201 00:56:05,133 --> 00:56:08,653 Speaker 27: ideally you'd want everyone to experience that and have the 1202 00:56:08,733 --> 00:56:11,293 Speaker 27: confidence then to be successful at school and then go 1203 00:56:11,373 --> 00:56:12,933 Speaker 27: on to those next stages afterwards. 1204 00:56:13,333 --> 00:56:14,573 Speaker 2: Well, it's a testament to you that you want to 1205 00:56:14,653 --> 00:56:17,413 Speaker 2: keep them right through to year thirteen. Considering how absolutely 1206 00:56:17,573 --> 00:56:20,933 Speaker 2: rammed Mount Albert Grammar is with people, you could use 1207 00:56:20,973 --> 00:56:21,693 Speaker 2: the space, couldn't you. 1208 00:56:22,653 --> 00:56:24,893 Speaker 27: Well that's right, but I mean, you know, that's our job, 1209 00:56:24,933 --> 00:56:27,413 Speaker 27: that's our business, and you know, we'd like to see 1210 00:56:27,453 --> 00:56:31,093 Speaker 27: everyone come right through from year nine to thirteen, do 1211 00:56:31,213 --> 00:56:34,173 Speaker 27: five years of secondary education and then kick on strongly 1212 00:56:34,253 --> 00:56:34,573 Speaker 27: after that. 1213 00:56:35,173 --> 00:56:38,133 Speaker 2: Now, Patrick drum Headmaster of Mount Abut Grahmam. You might 1214 00:56:38,173 --> 00:56:39,933 Speaker 2: not want a weigh on this. This is a weigh 1215 00:56:39,973 --> 00:56:41,813 Speaker 2: in on this. This is a secondary topic that I've 1216 00:56:41,853 --> 00:56:44,133 Speaker 2: been talking about. What do you say to people like 1217 00:56:44,213 --> 00:56:46,293 Speaker 2: me who claim this is going back in time that 1218 00:56:46,413 --> 00:56:48,813 Speaker 2: the cane was better than detention because you didn't miss 1219 00:56:48,853 --> 00:56:49,973 Speaker 2: the bus home with the cane. 1220 00:56:51,853 --> 00:56:55,533 Speaker 27: You're setting me up here, aren't you. I was probably 1221 00:56:55,533 --> 00:56:58,893 Speaker 27: at the school, probably earlier than you at my own schooling, 1222 00:56:58,933 --> 00:57:01,533 Speaker 27: I suppose, so I know what you're talking about. But no, Look, 1223 00:57:01,813 --> 00:57:04,772 Speaker 27: Will's moved on. We've got to find other ways. 1224 00:57:05,493 --> 00:57:05,653 Speaker 26: You know. 1225 00:57:05,693 --> 00:57:08,133 Speaker 27: We haven't got a great record on some of our 1226 00:57:08,333 --> 00:57:12,973 Speaker 27: solutions in terms of physical solutions to things in our communities, 1227 00:57:12,973 --> 00:57:14,373 Speaker 27: and I think we need to model let at school, 1228 00:57:14,413 --> 00:57:17,733 Speaker 27: these other ways to solve problems and get the result 1229 00:57:17,813 --> 00:57:20,973 Speaker 27: we want rather than I think the cane's head its 1230 00:57:21,013 --> 00:57:21,693 Speaker 27: day put it that way. 1231 00:57:22,813 --> 00:57:24,053 Speaker 2: I don't think I'm getting a lot of sport and 1232 00:57:24,173 --> 00:57:27,533 Speaker 2: bringing it back partly from my attention is working pretty well. 1233 00:57:27,773 --> 00:57:29,893 Speaker 3: Hey, Patrick, really good to catch up with you.

Yeah, as opposed to just leaving because 1308 01:01:33,253 --> 01:01:34,653 Speaker 2: you can't be bother getting out of bed in the 1309 01:01:34,693 --> 01:01:35,493 Speaker 2: morning to go to school. 1310 01:01:37,893 --> 01:01:39,293 Speaker 13: There was a bit of that when I was younger, 1311 01:01:39,333 --> 01:01:41,933 Speaker 13: and then I went to that stage of having the 1312 01:01:42,093 --> 01:01:47,173 Speaker 13: days off snowboarding and when I was apparently sick, but no, 1313 01:01:47,373 --> 01:01:53,613 Speaker 13: look I missed it. It's funny because this is the 1314 01:01:53,693 --> 01:01:58,613 Speaker 13: biggest part of this job is mathematics, and yeah, I 1315 01:01:58,893 --> 01:02:01,493 Speaker 13: do struggle with that. I've gotten better as time goes 1316 01:02:01,533 --> 01:02:05,733 Speaker 13: on to help me out, and evident goes through a calculator, 1317 01:02:05,813 --> 01:02:10,453 Speaker 13: so that would have helped. But yet that's that did 1318 01:02:10,533 --> 01:02:13,293 Speaker 13: me wonders as far as sitting the old tech again. 1319 01:02:13,093 --> 01:02:14,333 Speaker 3: And learning that makes you sure? 1320 01:02:15,453 --> 01:02:17,813 Speaker 13: So yeah, and the downside, so it was too when 1321 01:02:17,853 --> 01:02:20,533 Speaker 13: I left that age, all my mates from school, you know, 1322 01:02:20,853 --> 01:02:22,693 Speaker 13: we were still kicking around. But I always had money, 1323 01:02:22,773 --> 01:02:24,333 Speaker 13: so I had the smokes, and I always had all 1324 01:02:24,373 --> 01:02:27,573 Speaker 13: that and they never had none, and so it was 1325 01:02:27,613 --> 01:02:28,933 Speaker 13: just hard to keep up with.

I think it's pretty tasty, 1393 01:05:39,973 --> 01:05:44,333 Speaker 3: pretty gamy. Should the school leaving age go up to seventeen? 1394 01:05:44,373 --> 01:05:46,413 Speaker 3: What would it mean for your family and your household? 1395 01:05:46,693 --> 01:05:50,493 Speaker 3: It is twenty to three have a chat with the lads. 1396 01:05:50,253 --> 01:05:55,253 Speaker 1: On eighty eighty. Matt Heathan Tyler Adams afternoons used talk. 1397 01:05:55,133 --> 01:05:58,653 Speaker 3: Said, be for a good afternoon, dude, eighteen to three. 1398 01:05:59,133 --> 01:06:01,653 Speaker 3: So there's some thoughts about raising the school leaving age 1399 01:06:01,693 --> 01:06:04,733 Speaker 3: to seventeen? Is that a good idea or too far? 1400 01:06:05,653 --> 01:06:08,693 Speaker 3: Increasing numbers of children leaving school at fifteen and sixteen? 1401 01:06:08,733 --> 01:06:10,213 Speaker 3: But what do you say? Oh, eight hundred and eighty 1402 01:06:10,333 --> 01:06:12,933 Speaker 3: ten eighty is the number of call text here? Gooday, guys, 1403 01:06:13,213 --> 01:06:15,213 Speaker 3: great chat? Doesn't this put a bunch of people in 1404 01:06:15,253 --> 01:06:17,573 Speaker 3: the class that either don't want to be there or 1405 01:06:17,653 --> 01:06:20,813 Speaker 3: would be better in another format? This distracts from the 1406 01:06:20,893 --> 01:06:23,053 Speaker 3: people learning, which is a fair point. So that's a text. 1407 01:06:23,133 --> 01:06:26,293 Speaker 3: Who's against the idea of raising the school eving age 1408 01:06:26,333 --> 01:06:26,893 Speaker 3: to seventeen? 1409 01:06:27,453 --> 01:06:29,733 Speaker 2: It's interesting though, like if you look at as Patrick 1410 01:06:29,853 --> 01:06:33,453 Speaker 2: Drum said, one three hundred and seventy six secondary school 1411 01:06:33,493 --> 01:06:37,573 Speaker 2: students were granted nearly the leaving exemption last year. There's 1412 01:06:37,613 --> 01:06:39,613 Speaker 2: about three hundred thousand kids in school. 1413 01:06:39,773 --> 01:06:44,133 Speaker 3: Yeah, so what's the percentage of that?

There 1424 01:07:03,613 --> 01:07:06,173 Speaker 19: were classrooms apparently that I was meant to go into 1425 01:07:07,133 --> 01:07:10,253 Speaker 19: that was all cool.

Employers are looking for someone who's 1468 01:09:14,772 --> 01:09:17,492 Speaker 19: got a bit of mouse, not just hands on, you know. 1469 01:09:18,293 --> 01:09:21,333 Speaker 19: So I'm still involved in the building trade and teach 1470 01:09:21,452 --> 01:09:25,333 Speaker 19: night classes for groups of new apprentices that coming through, 1471 01:09:25,973 --> 01:09:29,852 Speaker 19: and we do practical and theory elements to it because 1472 01:09:29,893 --> 01:09:31,772 Speaker 19: I can feel their pain that they don't want to 1473 01:09:31,812 --> 01:09:35,133 Speaker 19: sit and do a written exam, so we presented in 1474 01:09:35,253 --> 01:09:39,812 Speaker 19: three different mediums to cover that off for them. But 1475 01:09:39,933 --> 01:09:43,732 Speaker 19: I still feel employers, no matter what, the workers want 1476 01:09:43,812 --> 01:09:46,213 Speaker 19: you to have half a brain at least, you know, 1477 01:09:46,732 --> 01:09:50,812 Speaker 19: so leaving school early, I don't think that's a great idea. 1478 01:09:51,253 --> 01:09:54,893 Speaker 19: I'm for the seventeen bringing it up to seventeen, to 1479 01:09:54,973 --> 01:09:55,572 Speaker 19: be honest. 1480 01:09:55,652 --> 01:09:57,492 Speaker 2: Even though it worked out so well for you. 1481 01:10:00,452 --> 01:10:03,293 Speaker 19: Yeah, probably a little bit of exception to the rule. 1482 01:10:03,333 --> 01:10:06,532 Speaker 19: But times have changed in that space, you know. I mean, 1483 01:10:06,612 --> 01:10:08,812 Speaker 19: they wanted me to get school se me when I 1484 01:10:08,893 --> 01:10:12,492 Speaker 19: didn't yep, So even then they were expecting expectations. Where 1485 01:10:12,933 --> 01:10:16,933 Speaker 19: did I put some effort in to school? See, and 1486 01:10:16,973 --> 01:10:19,172 Speaker 19: I didn't even pass woodwork, which is awkward. 1487 01:10:21,293 --> 01:10:23,612 Speaker 2: Well, I'm glad everything turned out great for you.

You look the teacher straight in the eye 1501 01:10:55,933 --> 01:10:58,452 Speaker 2: and say thank you sir for empowering me. 1502 01:10:58,812 --> 01:11:01,812 Speaker 3: Yeah that is powerful.

Can I have another plenty 1504 01:11:05,333 --> 01:11:07,173 Speaker 3: of tea's coming through On nineteen ninety two. 1505 01:11:07,173 --> 01:11:10,053 Speaker 2: Looks is staying to seventeen used to be for those 1506 01:11:10,133 --> 01:11:13,253 Speaker 2: sitting university interest exams. If you aren't going to university, 1507 01:11:13,372 --> 01:11:14,692 Speaker 2: what the hell are you doing at school? 1508 01:11:15,173 --> 01:11:15,372 Speaker 17: Yeah? 1509 01:11:15,452 --> 01:11:17,812 Speaker 3: Good, cool Blair? How are you mate? 1510 01:11:19,173 --> 01:11:20,732 Speaker 13: Heyler, it's very. 1511 01:11:20,612 --> 01:11:23,133 Speaker 3: Good what you take about raising the school leaving age. 1512 01:11:24,853 --> 01:11:27,333 Speaker 29: Me personally, I don't think it's going to achieve what 1513 01:11:27,492 --> 01:11:30,452 Speaker 29: they think it's going to achieve. I mean, if you know, 1514 01:11:30,612 --> 01:11:32,772 Speaker 29: one of your biggest issues at the moment is truancy, 1515 01:11:34,213 --> 01:11:36,133 Speaker 29: probably because the kids don't want to be there, So 1516 01:11:36,333 --> 01:11:40,213 Speaker 29: forcing them to stay there until they're seventeen isn't going 1517 01:11:40,293 --> 01:11:41,893 Speaker 29: to be the flex that I think they hope it is. 1518 01:11:42,612 --> 01:11:47,132 Speaker 29: And the other thing is they need to probably standardize everything, 1519 01:11:47,253 --> 01:11:49,492 Speaker 29: so like when are you and adults in this country? 1520 01:11:50,133 --> 01:11:56,532 Speaker 29: You can drive when you're fifteen, you can, yeah, you 1521 01:11:56,572 --> 01:11:58,612 Speaker 29: can drive when you're sixteen. You can get married when 1522 01:11:58,652 --> 01:12:01,052 Speaker 29: you're sorry, drive when you're fifteen, married when you're sixteen, 1523 01:12:01,372 --> 01:12:03,772 Speaker 29: But you can't buy alcohol, cigarettes or go to a 1524 01:12:03,853 --> 01:12:07,532 Speaker 29: knock shop until you're eighteen. You can't vote, I think, 1525 01:12:07,612 --> 01:12:10,852 Speaker 29: until you're eighteen. So at what point what point are 1526 01:12:10,933 --> 01:12:12,732 Speaker 29: you classed as an adult? 1527 01:12:13,133 --> 01:12:15,333 Speaker 2: It's an interesting call. And then there's some people calling 1528 01:12:15,412 --> 01:12:18,612 Speaker 2: for voting ags to be lied to sixteen as well. 1529 01:12:18,732 --> 01:12:20,013 Speaker 2: So what do you think? What do you think? It 1530 01:12:20,093 --> 01:12:22,372 Speaker 2: isn't the problem with classing when someone is an adult, 1531 01:12:22,372 --> 01:12:24,692 Speaker 2: because there are people that are adults when they're fifteen, 1532 01:12:24,692 --> 01:12:26,572 Speaker 2: and there are people that aren't adults when they're thirty. 1533 01:12:26,772 --> 01:12:29,812 Speaker 2: You know, know what I mean? But what do you reckon? 1534 01:12:30,053 --> 01:12:34,372 Speaker 2: What do you reckon in age? Is eighteen eighteen for everything? 1535 01:12:34,492 --> 01:12:34,652 Speaker 16: Yeah? 1536 01:12:34,772 --> 01:12:37,093 Speaker 29: I mean if well, I mean, if eighteen is the 1537 01:12:37,173 --> 01:12:40,572 Speaker 29: majority of what they consider you being old enough to 1538 01:12:41,253 --> 01:12:45,852 Speaker 29: make your own decisions theoretically, then it probably needs to 1539 01:12:45,933 --> 01:12:50,692 Speaker 29: be across everything. Now I've just contradicted myself. 1540 01:12:50,732 --> 01:12:51,293 Speaker 1: I realized that. 1541 01:12:53,253 --> 01:12:56,253 Speaker 29: You know, I still don't think it's going to achieve 1542 01:12:56,372 --> 01:12:58,252 Speaker 29: what they wanted to achieve by making. 1543 01:12:58,053 --> 01:12:58,932 Speaker 25: The kids stay longer. 1544 01:12:59,372 --> 01:13:00,253 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I was. 1545 01:13:01,253 --> 01:13:04,732 Speaker 29: I funked out of school fairly early on, as basically 1546 01:13:04,772 --> 01:13:07,572 Speaker 29: as soon as I could, and I was lucky. I'll 1547 01:13:07,652 --> 01:13:11,213 Speaker 29: landed on my feet and got a job and was 1548 01:13:11,253 --> 01:13:15,133 Speaker 29: there for quite a long time. And they've progressed through 1549 01:13:15,253 --> 01:13:19,412 Speaker 29: life fairly satisfactorily, I would think. But that was luck 1550 01:13:19,532 --> 01:13:22,052 Speaker 29: rather than good good luck rather than good management. 1551 01:13:22,412 --> 01:13:24,253 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's interesane because we're hearing from a lot of 1552 01:13:24,293 --> 01:13:26,973 Speaker 2: people that left school early and have done well, but 1553 01:13:27,093 --> 01:13:30,612 Speaker 2: we're not for whatever reason, And that might be survival 1554 01:13:30,692 --> 01:13:32,492 Speaker 2: by us that we're thinking here that we're not hearing 1555 01:13:32,532 --> 01:13:34,652 Speaker 2: from a lot of people that left school and regretted 1556 01:13:34,692 --> 01:13:38,572 Speaker 2: it and things didn't turn out because yeah, they just 1557 01:13:38,692 --> 01:13:40,253 Speaker 2: probably didn't turn out well enough for them to be 1558 01:13:40,333 --> 01:13:40,973 Speaker 2: ringing us right now. 1559 01:13:41,093 --> 01:13:43,852 Speaker 3: Yeah, and luck comes into it, as you say, Blair, Hey, 1560 01:13:43,933 --> 01:13:44,173 Speaker 3: thank you. 1561 01:13:44,213 --> 01:13:48,572 Speaker 2: So of your call.
