Answer

I am advised by the Ministry of Education that there are currently two contracts with Martin Jenkins. In relation to the Initial Teacher Education standards contract, a conflict of interest was declared by a sub-contractor for Martin Jenkins on 20 May 2026, and a management plan was put in place to protect the integrity of the work. No conflicts of interest were declared for the other contract.
