Kerry Lamont interviews Anna Penn, former Christchurch Polytechnic nursing student. Anna Penn says she was not allowed to proceed with her course of study after she failed a hui (part of the cultural safety section of the nursing course), and she says the Polytechnic's enquiry into her case will be a "whitewash".

Live material from Irihapeti Ramsden, the author of the cultural safety section for nursing courses.

Linda Rose talks to Graham Oldershaw, principal of the Wellington College of Education, about cultural awareness in educational institutions and student grievance procedures.
