Poll: Do you think religious education should be taught in state primary schools?
Allowing religious education to be taught in state schools has been a hot topic since it was made legal in the 1964 Education Act.
Schools are able to decide if they implement the classes but are required to "close" the school when teaching it - This is because they are still required to be secular when they are "open".

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
