Online Statistics Updated

School statistics on the NZQA website now show more detail on assessment results.

Where students have not attempted an externally assessed standard for which they have been entered, these results (SNA - standard not attempted) are now separated from Not Achieved data. This reflects what appears in the candidates' result packs.

All historical results (for years 2002-06) have been updated. Spreadsheets including figures calculated on the previous basis are also available.

Statistics now allow for comparisons by gender and ethnicity combined.

The NZQA website has also been updated in preparation for the reporting of certificate endorsements at each National Certificate of Educational Achievement (NCEA) level. This data will be part of national and school-by-school statistics for the 2007 year that will go online by April after verification by schools.
