67984 (2024). Hon Jan Tinetti to the Minister of Education: Do schools have to use one of the new maths resources; if not, can they use a resource that is suitable for their school?

Hon Erica Stanford: No, schools do not need to use the Ministry-funded resources. However, any other resources they choose to purchase will be at the schools’ own cost. Schools will need to be confident that any other resources they choose to use will support their students’ progress and achievement in the revised Year 0 to 8 maths curriculum, which is required to be taught from the start of 2025.
