Immigrant+and+involuntary+minorities+in+comparative+perspective

It is a fact that, Māori and Pasifika educational needs tend to be lumped together and treated as one. However, since Leigh Scott embarked on the ** Teaching Pacific Island Students in a NZ Context **paper, she has become aware that there are major differences in Māori and Pasifika needs and attitudes towards education.

For the busy among us, Leigh has kindly identified the main points in the paper 'Immigrant and involuntary minorities in comparative perspective'  written by the late Nigerian-American anthropologist ** John Uzo Ogbu ** and typed them up them for easy reading.
