Summary of review and consultation process

The Ngā Toi Māori qualifications were scheduled and triggered for review in 2021.  The NZQA Website was updated signalling the review and published the Review Plan and Draft Terms of Reference.  The Whakaruruhau Working Review Group (WWRG) members that participated in the review represented Ngā Toi practitioners, industry, and tertiary providers who deliver programmes leading to the Ngā Toi qualifications.

A kanohi ki te kanohi qualification review hui was conducted. Consultative development and feedback continued online until the WWRG had ratified the draft qualifications.

The WWRG for the qualifications and wider consultation for feedback and comments was conducted via the NZQA website for a duration of four weeks.  

The qualification review ensures the qualifications are relevant and fit for purpose to maintain relevancy across the Ngā Toi Māori sector.

 

Main changes resulting from the review

Minor changes were proposed to the Qualification Titles and Strategic Purpose Statements (SPS) to provide better alignment for learner progression from Level 3 to Level 6, and to align the SPS from a practitioner’s perspective.

Removal of the disciplines - Whakairo/Ngā Mahi a te Whare Pora/ Toi Ataata/ Mau Rākau/ Māori Performing Arts - from the qualifications titles is to allow the qualification to be inclusive of all Ngā Toi and not limited to the five disciplines (identified on the qualifications).

Minor changes to Graduate Profile Outcomes to reflect the changes and alignment to SPS.

Education, Employment, Cultural, Community Pathways information have been updated and revised for clarity and relevance in the Ngā Toi sector.

Minor grammatical changes made to Guiding Principles.

Minor changes made to General Programme Conditions Leading to Qualification were made to acknowledge the inclusion of other Ngā Toi.

The qualifications were transferred to the updated qualifications template.
