Chris Abercrombie: PPTA President on the passing rates for the new NCEA prerequisite tests

Less than half of the 55 thousand students who passed the tests passed numeracy, with 59% passing reading, and 56% passing writing.

He says students could do it in their last year of school and there are still dual pathways. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
