Upcoming Performance Audit On Educational Inequalities; Audit And Risk Committee Guidance Published

Our intentions: Looking at how the Ministry of Education uses information to address inequities in education

We’ve published details about an upcoming performance audit looking at how the Ministry of Education uses information to understand and address inequities in education for students in Years 1-13.

In 2018, New Zealand was ranked 33rd out of 38 developed countries for its overall educational inequality because of inequities in student achievement.

Our work hopes to identify where and how the Ministry might improve the information it holds and how it makes use of that information.
