OIA: 1329877 - Review of Achievement Standards and Curriculum Refresh 
Thank you for your emails of 30 May 2024 and 30 June 2024, to the Ministry of Education (the 
Ministry) requesting information about the Review of Achievement Standards and Curriculum 
Refresh. 
Your request has been considered under the Official Information Act 1982 (the Act).  
The Ministry needs to extend the timeframe for responding to your request, pursuant to sections 
15A(1)(a) and 15A(1)(b) of the Act, as the request is for a large quantity of information or 
necessitates a search through a large quantity of information, and as consultations necessary to 
make a decision on the request and meeting the original time limit would unreasonably interfere 
with the operations of the Ministry. You can now expect to receive a response to your request on or 
before 23 August 2024, which is an extension of 20 working days. 
You have the right to ask an Ombudsman to investigate our decision to extend the timeframe for 
responding to this request, in accordance with section 28 of the Act. You can do this by writing to 
[email address] or Office of the Ombudsman, PO Box 10152, Wellington 6143. 
Nāku noa, nā
