[IN-CONFIDENCE - RELEASE EXTERNAL]

Tēnā koe Tyler

 

Thank you for your email of 29 June 2026 to the Ministry of Education
requesting the following information relating to the development,
governance, and implementation of the Foundational Learning Action Plan
(FLAP):

 

* the Foundational Learning Action Plan, programme plan, implementation
strategy, or equivalent document describing the overall programme;

* any programme governance framework, governance structure, governance
terms of reference, or equivalent document describing the governance of
FLAP;

* any evidence review, research summary, business case, investment
proposal, or equivalent document relied upon in establishing the
Foundational Learning Action Plan; and

* any programme evaluation framework, benefits realisation framework,
logic model, theory of change, or equivalent document prepared for FLAP.

 

This request is limited to final or substantive programme documentation
and does not include routine administrative correspondence, meeting
invitations, or early drafting material.

 

Your request has been considered under the Official Information Act 1982
(the Act).

 

We note you appear to have interpreted the Foundational Learning Action
Plan as a formal governance mechanism - which it is not.  At a high level,
it is essentially how the Ministry has compiled the foundational Literacy
and Numeracy investments into a public-facing document found here:
[1]Foundational Learning Action Plan - Ministry of Education.  On that
basis, would you like to clarify, refine or withdraw your request? We
would appreciate hearing from you by 13 July 2026.

 

Please note that in line with Section 15 (1AA) of the Act, if a request is
amended or clarified after the date on which it is received, the Ministry
may treat the amended or clarified request as a new request that replaces
the original request.
