The Ministry of Education has completed a review of the achievement standards listed above.
New Registration date December 2014
Date new versions published December 2014
Planned review date December 2017
Summary of review, development and consultation process
In 2010 the Ministry of Education, in association with the New Zealand Qualifications Authority and subject working groups, began to develop achievement standards derived from outcomes in Te Marautanga o Aotearoa (TMoA). This development also addressed duplication of outcomes, credit parity, fairness, consistency and coherence. The development was guided by the direction of Te Marautanga o Aotearoa and the Standards Review Guidelines. A copy of TMoA is available at: http://tmoa.tki.org.nz/Nga-Marautanga-o-Aotearoa/Te-Marautanga-o-Aotearoa.
Draft achievement standards were developed with the involvement of teacher subject working groups. The draft standards were the focus of wide consultation, especially with kaiako (teachers) in wharekura (secondary programmes in Māori-medium schools). Resources were also developed to support the standards.
There are no unit standards for Te Reo Rangatira.
Main changes resulting from the review
· All TMoA Level 7 (NZQF Level 2) outcomes are now assessed using achievement standards.
· Grading criteria for achievement standards were reviewed in accordance with the Standards Review Guidelines.
· Three of the eight existing Te Reo Rangatira standards were replaced with new standards (C category) and the remainder were designated expiring (D category).
· Twelve new standards were created at Level 2 for Te Reo Rangatira that align to TMoA outcomes.
· The Te Reo Rangatira domain in the Reo Māori subfield was designated expiring. The new standards are classified in the new Te Reo Rangatira domain in the new Te Marautanga o Aotearoa subfield.

Development of Te Reo Rangatira Level 2 Achievement Standards
Process of aligning standards with Te Marautanga o Aotearoa (TMoA)
The process of aligning achievement standards with Te Marautanga o Aotearoa (TMoA) was informed by a series of audits across all learning areas conducted by Māori-medium subject specialists. After determining the extent to which the existing achievement standards met the whāinga paetae (achievement objectives) within the Te Reo Māori learning area of TMoA, new achievement standards were developed for this area.
Subject specialists working in wharekura were contracted by the Ministry of Education to develop the new set of standards. The twelve new Te Reo Rangatira Level 2 achievement standards (AS91777–AS91788) build on the new Level 1 standards that were registered in December 2013.
The new Level 2 Te Reo Rangatira achievement standards have been developed to align with the whāinga paetae within the Level 7 ā-Waha (Oral), ā-Tā (Written) and ā-Tinana (Paralinguistic) strands of the Te Reo Māori learning area of TMoA.
Supporting documents have been developed to assist in the interpretation of achievement standards and the development of teaching and learning programmes:
· Conditions of Assessment
· Assessment Specifications.
Addressing duplication
The new achievement standards were compared in detail with existing standards (including the Te Reo Māori standards) to ensure that there was no duplication with the existing standards.
Addressing credit parity
The credits allocated to the standards reflect the time required for the teaching and learning involved.
External and internal assessment
The mode of assessment for each standard best reflects the teaching and learning involved for each standard.
What has changed (summary)?
At Level 2 the twelve new achievement standards (AS91777–AS91788) cover the Level 7 ā-Waha (Oral), ā-Tā (Written) and ā-Tinana (Paralinguistic) strands across:
· language fields (mōteatea, karakia, whakataukī etc.)
· language structure and conventions (grammar, stylistic conventions etc.).
TRR 2.1 Te whakarongo ki ngā tohunga reo (AS91777) is an externally assessed standard that requires students to provide evidence of their listening comprehension skills. TRR 2.2 Te wetewete i ngā tuhinga tuatahi (AS91778) and TRR 2.3 Te pānui i ngā tuhinga tawhito (AS91779) require students to provide evidence of their reading comprehension ability relating to classical Māori texts. TRR 2.3 (AS91779) is externally assessed.
TRR 2.4 Te tuhi kōrero whakaae rānei, whakahē rānei (AS91780) is an externally assessed standard that requires students to provide evidence of their persuasive writing skills, while TRR 2.5 Te tito i te whakaari (AS91781) and TRR 2.6 Te tito i tētahi pakiwaitara poto (AS91782) require students to provide evidence of their ability in creative writing in the areas of drama and traditional narratives, drawing on appropriate models. TRR 2.7 Te whakarite i te whaituhi roa mō te takenga o te reo Māori (AS91783) requires the composition of a formal essay on the origins and development of the Māori language.
The two oral standards, TRR 2.8 Te kōrero i te pakiwaitara (AS91784) and TRR 2.9 Te whakahāngai i ngā kōrero o nehe ki te ao hou hei kōrero ōhia (AS91785), require students to provide evidence of their skills in story telling and off the cuff speech making. TRR 2.10 Te wetewete kaupapa (AS91786) requires students to analyse a topic within a group discussion setting.
TRR 2.11 Te tūhura me te pūrongo i te reo peha (AS91787) builds on TRR 2.1, in that it assesses students’ ability to analyse the literary devices that fluent speakers use to enrich their language. TRR 2.12 Te tūhura i ngā tikanga o te reo (AS91788) requires students to provide evidence of an exploration of language structure and conventions that are important in maintaining the integrity of te reo Māori.
