Erica Stanford: Education Minister on the declining PISA scores

Different ideas on the best way to change falling PISA scores.  

Education Minister Erica Stanford says the declines in reading, writing, and maths are disappointing, but entirely predictable.  

She says we've been using incorrect methods for the past 30 years.  

Stanford told Mike Hosking that National spent the campaign talking about the need for a change in approach.  

She says we need a curriculum that teaches strong strategies starting at primary schools.  

But PPTA Chris Abercrombie says constant curriculum changes between Government's is a factor in long term decline.
