Subgroup Analysis [Click on charts to enlarge] : |
Commentary: |
Reading a bus schedule was a task handled completely successfully by 56% of year 8 students and 28% of year 4 students. One issue seen consistently was the lack of attention to detail on whether the time was AM or PM. Mäori students were less successful than Pakeha or Pasifika students at both year 4 and year 8. There was little change in performance between 2003 and 2007. |
