The Christchurch Press as part of Fairfax released National Standards data, but had a number of articles with a curiously sensible line on it: “…the standards’ main effects will be to impose on schools a crude, misleading and unhelpful form of accountability and to focus attention on learning targets that are inappropriate for many children.”

Leaders’ debate tonight

The Press Leaders’ Debate. Phil Goff and John Key. 7pm tonight.  Not televised, but streamed live.  The format can only be better than TV1!  Check it out.

I don’t know about you but the streaming is failing on me. What I did catch was Key trying to back out of his promise that redzoners wouldn’t be left out of pocket. Goff responded: “If you’re not going to do something, for heaven’s sake don’t promise it” and got loud applause. Twitter consensus is Goff is winning big from the get go.

The server will be getting hardware changes this evening starting at 10pm NZDT.
