The promise of Appreciative Inquiry as a tool to developing home-school relationships for secondary Pacific students
1Victoria University of Wellington, Te Herenga Waka, Wellington, New Zealand.
Abstract:
Crucial to the success of Pacific learners is the engagement of schools with the learners' families and their communities. This article reports on a small-scale study which focussed on home-school relationships for Pacific secondary learners in Aotearoa New Zealand. It explored good practice and further considered how schools might develop their home-school practices to better support Pacific students. An Appreciative Inquiry (AI) lens supported this strength-based approach. AI promotes positive change through the inclusion of multiple voices. This article argues that AI is a tool which schools could use to review and develop their home-school relationships with Pacific families and, in so doing, bring about structural changes that promote successful learning experiences for Pacific students.
