YEAR 11 LITERACY & NUMERACY ACHIEVEMENT IN MAORI BOARDING SCHOOLS*

* Data presented is taken from the Ministry of Education’s Paerangi School Improvement Report (1996 – 2003)

The top table shows the percentage of all students in their third year of study who met the literacy requirements for NCEA Level 1 in 2002 and 2003 (provisional results). On average a greater percentage of students at Paerangi schools achieved the literacy requirements compared with the national average in both years.

The results show that on average, the Paerangi schools performed slightly worse in 2003 but this was in line with a downward trend for students nationally.

The results of each Māori boarding school are colour coded.
As with numeracy, Red College had significant improvement in 2003, with 100% of its students meeting the literacy requirement in that year. Navy Blue College maintained its 100% success rate, whilst the other four schools had a decrease in the proportion of students meeting the requirements for literacy.

The bottom table shows the percentage of all students in their third year of study who met the numeracy requirement for NCEA Level 1 in 2002 and 2003 (provisional results). As the chart shows, on average Paerangi schools achieved better than the national average in both years.
