2453 (2010). Hon Trevor Mallard to the Minister of Education (18 Mar 2010): Does plain language for reporting to parents vary according to the community the school serves?
Hon Anne Tolley (Minister of Education) replied: Reports to parents are to be at least twice a year in writing. They are to report both progress and achievement in relation to the standards in simple, clear and direct language. Schools and parent communities can decide the detail of the approach that best suits their particular community.
