The National Party says it will undo parts of the government's tertiary reform package within 100 days of power.

New Zealand's 16 polytechs are set to merge into one entity, but National say that's something they vigorously oppose and will reverse.

Education Minister Chris Hipkins says it would be a momentum killer at a time of increased training.

National's education spokesperson Nikki Kaye joined Kate Hawkesby to explain how National would go about making the changes to the government's tertiary reform package.
