A private Green School in Taranaki has found itself at the centre of a political battle after being granted $11.7 million dollars through the government's shovel-ready projects fund.

So what does a Green School do, and will it accept the controversial funding?
Green School chief executive Chris Edwards speaks to Susie Ferguson.
