Chris Hipkins: Education Minister on the Government's plan to improve literacy and math rates - Kerre Woodham Mornings Podcast

Last Thursday we had a one-topic show on literacy, after a new report from Education Hub raised concerns about our "deeply worrying" decline in literacy levels.
Their report found less than 65 per cent of 15-year-olds have basic proficiency in reading and maths.

Education Minister Chris Hipkins joined Kerre McIvor.
