School Attendance Improves as New Zealand Focuses on Student Engagement

New Zealand’s provisional Term 3 attendance data, announced on 15 October, showed the highest in-person school attendance for any Term 3 since 2022, despite a challenging flu season. Education providers can explore opportunities in attendance monitoring, student engagement programmes and school-support services. Schools and training organisations can benefit from digital learning platforms, attendance analytics and professional development services. No new education-services contract value was disclosed in the announcement.
