The Education Minister says there was no option to do nothing when it came to changing NCEA. The proposed changes include replacing the qualification with a system emphasising literacy and numeracy more. Erica Stanford told Kerre Woodham changes were already underway with Labour updating the Level 1 curriculum, so there was no option to do nothing. She says they either had to continue rolling out Labour's plan, or look at what a better plan could be, and that's what they've done. Labour's education spokesperson has only just been briefed on changes to NCEA. Willow-Jean Prime initially ignored, then later declined repeated offers from Stanford to give feedback on the changes. Labour leader Chris Hipkins later said Prime was wrong to decline the offers. Those offers were made as far back as March, but Stanford told Woodham Prime first met with officials last week. She says she's asked lots of questions, but has yet to come back with any feedback, so they'll see where that goes. WATCH ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Democratic Alliance (DA) and the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) are turning up the heat on Higher Education and Training Minister Buti Manamela over appointment of three administrators to lead embattled Sector Education and Training Authorities (SETAs).

More students are attending school regularly. Figures released today show 58.4% of students regularly attended school in Term 2 - the highest since 2021. It's a drop from Term 1 where 66% of students showed up regularly, but this is partially explained by winter illness. Associate Education Minister David Seymour says messaging from the government has changed to remind parents school is important. However no prosecutions have been launched against parents of truant kids. Seymour told Kerre Woodham 15 prosecutions were explored but later dropped. He says it's clear the threat of prosecution is changing parents' behaviour. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A lack of surprise from the Education Minister over poor writing achievement in schools. New data shows only a quarter of Year 8 students achieved their curriculum writing level last year. The Government's launching a new digital tool for students sitting below the standard and introducing more professional development in literacy. Education Minister Erica Stanford told Mike Hosking the figures are the results of years of decline and a poor curriculum, which is now being changed. She says there's teaching practices where students have to guess words. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Minister of Education says much more needs to be done, as more Kiwi kids fall behind in school. New data shows just 24 percent of Year 8 students have achieved the curriculum level in writing. The Government's hoping to turn that around with a writing action plan, which includes tools for handwriting, literacy and reading for teachers and students. Erica Stanford says the Government's new English curriculum aims to 'plug the gap' among Kiwi students. "This is for those children that are in Years 6 to 8, who will not have all of the benefits of those things coming through primary." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A couple of weeks ago in our weekly catch-up with the ACT Party's Simon Court, we discussed multiple countries moving to formally recognise Palestinian Statehood, and what New Zealand's plans were in this regard. Last week, Foreign Minister, Winston Peters, said the country would carefully weigh its position over the next month in recognising the state of Palestine. During a debate in Parliament, the government's delay in recognising a Palestinian state, as opposed to other countries such as France, the UK, Canada, and Australia, led Green Party co-leader, Chlöe Swarbrick, to refer to the country as “outlier,” and called for the government MPs “with a spine” to “stand on the right side of history”. This led to her being ordered to leave Parliament by Speaker Gerry Brownlee, after refusing to apologise for her statement. As well as this, last week, Education Minister, Erica Stanford, announced cancelling the early-reading book At the Marae from its Ready to Read Phonics Plus series.  The government's reasoning for this is through “mixed” evidence suggesting that learning both English and te reo Māori for young learners could confuse them. The move has been widely criticised by linguists, academics, and educators, for being “an act of racism” and “white supremacy”. For our weekly catch-up with the ACT Party's Simon Court, Producer Castor spoke to Simon about both these topics, starting with recognising a Palestinian state.

Following on from our chat with Simon Court, Thursday Wire Host, Caeden, spoke to Margaret Mutu - a Māori Studies Professor at the University of Auckland, who has a PhD in linguistics, about Education Minister, Erica Stanford's announcement, that the early-reading book At the Marae from the Ready to Read Phonics Plus series, will be canned. The ministry told RNZ that At the Marae, unlike other books in the series, the book uses six kupu Māori, could result in challenges for young learners.  however, Officials have advised the ministry that there was “limited” research regarding the effect kupu Māori had in early-reading books. Caeden spoke to Mutu about this, and the positives of raising tamariki with both English and te reo Māori

Education Minister Erica Stanford has been accused of overstepping the mark by excluding most Māori words from future books in a series for five year olds. An Education Ministry document shows Stanford made the decision in October last year because she was worried Māori words, apart from characters' names, would confuse learner readers using the ministry's Ready to Read Phonics Plus series. Schools did not know about the edict until RNZ broke the news today. Education correspondent John Gerritsen reports.

A Māori educator says he's angry the Education Minister is blaming possible confusion over pronunciation for excluding most Māori words from future books in a series for five-year-olds learning to read. Wellington kura kaupapa tumuaki and joint national chair of the national Kura Kaupapa Māori movement Rawiri Wright spoke to Corin Dann.

The Education Minister says our NCEA achievement results are ticking up as we climb out of Covid. Last year Level 1 achievement dropped slightly to its lowest level in a decade, and Māori fell further behind. There were improvements though in NCEA Levels 2, 3, and University Entrance for the first time in five years. Erica Stanford told Mike Hosking these students also came through after she became Minister. She says they've had that hour of reading, writing, and maths which has helped this incline, but she's really worried about Level 1. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A secondary teachers' union is dubious AI could adequately grade almost all school assessments within three years. The Government plans to replace NCEA with a system emphasising literacy and numeracy more. The Education Minister is also now saying AI is already partly in use for marking - and NZQA is confident it could do almost all assessments by 2028. PPTA President, Chris Abercrombie, says he isn't convinced.

The Education Minister says balance of choice is a priority under its new qualification system. The Government is proposing to throw out NCEA for two certificates in Years 12 and 13. Level 1 will be replaced with a foundation test in numeracy and literacy. Erica Stanford told Mike Hosking that after Year 11, students are free to choose the subjects which engage them. She says the key difference will be when students study English, math, or physics, it will be against a world-leading benchmarked curriculum, and children in Invercargill will be learning the exact same thing as those in Auckland. The Education Minister's also looking at trimming down the variety of subjects available to students. Stanford told Hosking they're taking a look at the number of subjects and the amount of students taking each one. But she still wants the option for children to take classes which excite them, like dance and drama. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Government's proposing to entirely phase out NCEA within five years - saying New Zealand needs a schooling system that sets students up for success. It wants to scrap NCEA over the next five years, in favour of a literacy and numeracy test in year 11 - and certificates the next two years. Education Minister Erica Stanford says it's worth creating something New Zealand can stand behind, rather than leaning on systems like the Cambridge Exams.

Despite Russia's war of aggression, Ukraine is rewriting the future of its education system. The New Ukrainian School reform programme is a bold initiative to move away from Soviet-era style schooling and to instead embrace a more modern, student-centred approach. It was launched in 2016, two years after Ukraine's pro-Russian president Viktor Yanukovych was ousted after months of mass demonstrations.

We owe our kids an apology. School students of all ages in this country have been used as guinea pigs in failed experiments that have been demonstrably bad for their learning. We've had two announcements from the Government this week that prove this. First, the latest NCEA maths results from low decile schools. They improved by around 70 percent. 19.8 percent passed the co-requisite test last year. In June it was 34 percent. This is, obviously, excellent news. Well done to those students for putting in the hard work. The begging question is why and how on earth did this happen? I asked both Erica Stanford and Chris Hipkins, the former Education Minister, this question. Both agreed it was a more relentless focus on the basics. Both agreed that teachers have been teaching too much 'fluffy' other stuff to students and their results in core subjects have been declining as a result. Both politicians blamed the other party for changing where the focus goes. And that's politics. But it's the students who've missed out. They're the ones who won't get those years back. They're the ones who've missed out. They're the ones who will pay the price in future for missing out on a basic education. And two, the open plan, barn-yard style classrooms - the home of distracted learning. The Government today announced they won't build any new ones. Which, again, is welcome news. But the question is - why any were built in the first place? The Key government built some and Labour carried on. All of this on the advice of boffins at the Ministry of Education who've clearly never stepped foot in an actual classroom. Now, the Minister says they've done some actual research and realised they're a terrible idea. This is how Erica Stanford politely described how schools are coping with these classes at present: "There are schools who still have them and they operate in them the best they possibly can. They have trained their teachers to work in them, they've got really good acoustics. They're teaching children at different levels, some on chairs, some on the floor to reduce the noise, and they're doing the best they can." I know, totally ridiculous. The reality is, we can't solely blame out kids for their failure to learn. We can also blame ill-informed or ideologically-driven experiments by the Ministry of Education, the unions and politicians. Whether it's the Ministry in Wellington, the unions or politicians, we can't solely blame our kids for their failure to learn. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
