Question

  • For what reason, if any, was the review into the Teaching Council conducted by Debbie Francis commissioned?

Answered by

Hon Erica Stanford

Member for East Coast Bays · National Party · Minister of Education

Answer

The Teaching Council did not advise me of why a review into the Teaching Council was commissioned because this is an operational matter for the Teaching Council, who is responsible for this publication. The Teaching Council is an independent statutory entity and is accountable to the Chief Executive and Board, not the Minister of Education.
