12303 (2025). Dr Lawrence Xu-Nan to the Minister of Education: What reports, briefings, emails, memos, aides-memoire, notes or written advice, if any, has the Minister and/or her Office received from the Ministry of Education regarding the Ministry issuing a request for proposals (RFP) for a standardised assessment tool that schools can use twice a year with children in Years 3-10; listed by title and date received?
Hon Erica Stanford: I received one information update from the Ministry of Education regarding the request for proposals for a standardised assessment tool on 6 March 2025 – Single standardised assessment tool next steps. This response does not cover members of my office who receive a large amount of material every week. Asking them to collate that material would require substantial collation and research and prevent them from undertaking their substantive roles.
