A Vaccine Mandate For Teachers w/ The Children's Commissioner & NZEI: October 8, 2021

The Children's Commissioner, Andrew Becroft, is calling for a mandate for teachers to be vaccinated against Covid-19. Becroft says children must be protected given they are not vaccinated themselves, and it will help prevent children from passing Covid onto their families. Noah Ferguson-Dudding spoke to the Commissioner about the potential mandate and what it would entail.

Noah also spoke to National Secretary of the New Zealand Educational Institute, Paul Goulter, about how teachers feel about a mandate, and why he feels it may not currently be necessary.
