Subgroup Analysis [Click on charts to enlarge] : |
Commentary: |
Quite a lot of year 8 students forgot to double the cost of the pens and crayons, and computational errors were reasonably common at both year levels. There was no meaningful change of performance from 2005 to 2009. Mäori students performed similarly to Pakeha students, as did year 8 Pasifika students. |
