First state school to become a charter school not worried about Labour's plan to scrap the model

The principal of the first state school to become charter isn't worried about Labour's pledge to scrap the model. 

Northland's Pakaraka School has a roll of about 70 - and will now be governed by a charitable trust, set up by parents. 

Party Leader Chris Hipkins has argued the autonomous schools don't add anything - and if elected, it'd transition them back into the public education system. 

Principal Patricia Simeon told Heather du Plessis-Allan that's not her focus right now. 

She says she isn't thinking that far ahead - and would deal with it if it happens.
