The NZQA Māori Qualifications Services has completed the review of the unit standards listed above.
Date new versions published June 2026
Planned review date December 2031
Summary
The review was undertaken as part of the planned cycle of review of Māori Qualification Services unit standards. MQS along with Whakaruruhau, reviewed the Te Ara Tauira Whakairo unit standards to ensure that they remain fit for purpose, are relevant, and meet the needs and aspirations of ākonga, whānau, hapū, iwi and hapori.
Main changes
The main changes that were made to the standards include the following:
· Minor wording changes have been made to guidance information, outcomes, performance criteria, range statements, and grading information for relevancy, consistency, and to provide clarity for kaiako and ākonga in a Whakairo context.
· Definitions have been updated.
· Grammatical errors have been corrected.
· Unit standard 23009 – change to title, purpose, grading information and outcome 1 to better reflect the intent of the standard with a focus on design techniques.
