Hon CHRIS HIPKINS (Minister of Education): There's certainly a lot in there to address, and I'll do my best to work my way through that. With regard to student progress, yes, of course we do expect the education system at all levels to be doing a better job and to be striving to do a better job year on year in terms of student progress and student achievement. The single biggest determinant in school of a child's progress will be the quality of their teacher, and all of the international evidence and all of the evidence here in New Zealand will tell us that, too—doesn't mean we can ignore the out-of-school factors, but it means in school the biggest impact is the quality of the teacher that they have in front of them.
