NCEA pass rates dropping
Stuff reports that NCEA pass rates for Level 1 and 2 have dropped for the first time since 2010. The changes are:
- Level 1 from 74.9% to 71.8%
- Level 2 from 78.3% to 77.4%
- Level 1 Maori pass rate dropped from 62.7% to 57.9%
- Level 1 Pasifika pass rate dropped from 66.9% to 62.1%
A considerable concern that the disparity between Maori/Pasifika pass rates and other students is growing, after many years of reducing.
