Week 5 of Talanoa Ako, continuing the conversation with teachers Alisi Tatafu, Mangere College, Auckland & Alapasita Lavaka, Otahuhu School Auckland.

We unpack what literacy and numeracy really look like in today’s classrooms — from reading, writing, speaking and understanding language, to building confidence with numbers, problem-solving and real-world math's skills.

We also explore:
The new literacy and numeracy curriculum for Years 1–10
What students need to achieve NCEA Levels 1, 2 and 3
The 10 Literacy (or Te Reo Matatini) and 10 Numeracy (or Pāngarau) credit requirements
The new NCEA co-requisite and what it means for your child’s learning journey
Insights and helpful tools from the Pacific PISA resource
How structured literacy and numeracy approaches are being introduced in classrooms
Why clear, consistent learning standards matter — not just here in Aotearoa, but internationally

If you’re a parent, caregiver, educator or student, this episode will help you better understand the pathway and how we can work together to support our young people to succeed.
