On Wednesday, 15 August a group of randomly selected Year 11 Rutherford students will be participating in the Programme for International Student Assessment or PISA.

Those lucky enough to be selected will spend part of the day answering a series of online questionnaires in three core areas, Math, Science and English.

By participating, students will help to shape change and improvement in New Zealand’s educational system.

Those selected were notified on Wednesday, 8 August and have been given a letter to bring home outlining the process.

Any questions an be directed to Darren White, the project co-coordinator, by email [email protected] or phone (09) 834 9799.
