Crimson Education
John made this Official Information request to Ministry of Education
Ministry of Education did not have the information requested.
From: John
Dear Ministry of Education,
Recently, I am bombarded with online advertisement from Crimson Education, an education provider offering online K-12 education in New Zealand and around the world and appears to have the endorsement of our former Prime Minister, Sir John Key.
Please advise whether this is a legitimate education provider registered with the New Zealand Education Authorities, and whether a parent enrolling a child with this provider only is considered to have met all duties to send a child below the age of 16 to school under New Zealand laws.
Yours faithfully,
John Trafalgar
