Māori Qualifications Services – NZQA (MQS) has completed the review of the unit standards listed above.
Date new versions published March 2021
Planned review date December 2025
Summary
As part of the planned standards review cycle, MQS and the Whakairo Whakaruruhau reviewed the Te Ara Tauira unit standards to ensure they remain fit for purpose, and meet the aspirations and needs of ākonga, as well as whānau, hapū and iwi.
The last date for assessment of superseded versions of the reviewed standards is 31 December 2023. Results will not be accepted where the assessment date is after the last date for assessment of superseded versions of the unit standards.
Main changes
· References to “carvers” and “carving” were removed from the Level 1 standards and replaced with “kaiwhakairo” and “whakairo”, respectively.
· Guidance information was amended to update or add definitions, to clarify the criteria for merit and excellence, and to ensure the assessment or performance of the standard be interpreted consistently.
· Titles of standards 23005-23009, 23011, 23013, 23015 and 23016 were amended for clarity and consistency, and to align with updated outcomes and/or performance criteria.
· Credits for the levels 1 and 2 standards were increased from 5 to 6 to better reflect the time required to achieve these standards.
· Criteria for merit and excellence grades were amended to better relate to quality of evidence required.
· Outcomes, performance criteria and range statements were amended to better clarify requirements and improve assessment.
