To create a community of Maori learners with high academic achievement in mathematics
Annual Aim for 2013: To improve the percentage of pupils working above the National Standards at years 2, 4 and 6.
Rationale:
The 2012 end of year data told us:
· We looked at the maths data and noted that many pupils were well below expectations and 63 pupils (36%) were “below”.
· Well below is recognised as two years behind.
· 14 of the 16 pupils well below were boys.
· The biggest group well below were 2012 year 5 pupils (i.e. 2013 year 6) with 25 of these pupils (70%) below or well below.
· There are no ORRS funded pupils in year 5.
· There are no pupils in the bi-lingual unit at stage 6.
