Student Outcome Information Kits (SOIK)
The Student Achievement in New Zealand information kit describes student achievement in reading, writing and mathematics and He Kete Raraunga describes student achievement in pānui, tuhituhi and pāngarau. More information about these kits is available from the Student Achievement in New Zealand information kit home page and He Kete Raraunga home page.
He Kete Raraunga and the Student Achievement in New Zealand information kit include data from asTTle – the Assessment Tools for Teaching and Learning. asTTle is an educational resource designed to provide teachers, students and parents with information about a student’s level of achievement relative to desired curriculum achievement outcomes, although these kits contain asTTle data that was collected for the purpose of trialling items during its development.
Finally, both kits draw on results from the National Certificate of Educational Achievement (NCEA) which is New Zealand’s national qualification for senior secondary students, implemented from 2002.
These surveys assess individual students, but they describe student performance at a national level. The information in the kits cannot be compared because the language of the test and often the items in the test are different.
