Date new versions published                                                               January 2022

 

Planned review date                                                                              December 2025

 

Summary

 

The standards were revised and rolled over as part of their scheduled maintenance cycle.  In view of the development by the Ministry of Education of new Literacy and Numeracy standards as part of the change package for the National Certificates in Educational Achievement (NCEA), it was proposed not to formally review the six current standards at this stage.  Instead they have been revised to prolong their currency, for full review when the Ministry’s new standards are introduced, currently anticipated from 2023. 

 

All providers with consent to assess and other key stakeholders were informed of the proposed revision and were invited to comment.  All responses were in favour of the proposed revision.

 

Main changes

 

·      The reference to the digital assessment tool was removed from 26623 and 26624.

·      The standards were transferred to the new format.
