In the latter half of the 1980's, educational administration in New Zealand underwent massive and rapid reform based upon the ‘Picot Report’. Major articles of the governments reform included: the devolution of greater power to schools; the promotion of self-managing schools following the devolution; and greater community involvement in education. One of the greatest changes achieved through this reform was the abolition of Education Boards, having continued for more than 100 years. Following, all state primary and secondary schools throughout the country adopted a Board of Trustees (BOT), representing parents of students.
