The government has announced plans for a traffic light system with "clear obligations" for students about attending school.

Seymour pointed to New Zealand’s attendance rates having fallen from 69.5 percent in term 2015, to 39.9 percent in term two 2022.

That’s actually quite a shocking statistic, there must be a large number of kids simply never attending school at all to have an average that low.

    It’s definitely a very poor way to present the data.
