Dear UoO - Official Information Act, thank you for this information. As you cannot assess whether Whitikahu School, 763 Whitikahu Road is eligible for rural entry into MB ChB in 2025, can you determine whether it would have been considered rural for rural entry into 2022 or 2023 MB ChB? As the rural eligibility criteria has already been put in place for those years.
Yours sincerely,
Brooke
