5103 (2026). Hon Willow-Jean Prime to the Minister of Education: Is the ten-page report entitled 'Five Year Excellence Horizon' available on the Teaching Council website the full independent, external review of the Teaching Council conducted by Debbie Francis or is it a summary?

Hon Erica Stanford: This is a question for the Teaching Council, who is responsible for this publication. The Teaching Council is an independent statutory entity and is accountable to the Chief Executive and Board, not the Minister of Education.
