Dear Ministry of Education,

 

Tēnā koutou,

 

I am writing to make a request under the Official Information Act 1982.

 

The refreshed New Zealand Curriculum uses four capability titles
consistently across all learning areas at Phase 5:

 

- Knowing and understanding

- Analysing and applying

- Evaluating and synthesising

- Representing and communicating

 

I request the following information relating specifically to the origin
and evidence base for these four titles as a cross-curriculum design
decision:

 

1. Any advice, briefings, or reports that informed the decision to adopt
these four titles as a consistent cross-curriculum framework across all
learning areas.

 

2. Any research literature, cognitive frameworks, or curriculum theory
cited or used to support the selection and naming of these four titles.

 

3. Any international curriculum frameworks or syllabuses reviewed or used
as reference points when developing these titles.

 

I am happy to receive this information in electronic format. If any part
of this request is refused, I ask that you identify which part and the
grounds for refusal under the OIA, and provide the remaining information.

 

Ngā mihi,

Claire

 

Yours faithfully,

 

CMC
