Under the terms of an agreement finalised today, PEP will acquire ACG and provide new funding that will enable the Group to enhance and expand its provision of premium education services in New Zealand and overseas. The investment, which is subject to a number of regulatory and other approvals, is expected to complete by early 2016. The terms of the agreement are confidential. Commenting on ACG’s education philosophy, John Morris, the Chair of ACG’s Education Council, stated: “When Sir John Graham and Dawn Jones founded Senior College in 1995 their vision was to enable ACG’s students to achieve outstanding academic outcomes. That vision, together with the focus on our students’ further education and employment pathways, remains central to ACG’s education philosophy today. With PEP’s backing, we look forward to enhancing our students’ learning and employment opportunities further.” PEP Managing Director Geoff Hutchinson said: “We greatly admire ACG’s commitment to academic excellence and the delivery of quality driven outcomes for its students. Through its schools in New Zealand, Indonesia and Vietnam, together with tertiary & careers training, early childhood education and university foundation courses, ACG nurtures thousands of students to achieve their potential. It is a privilege to have the opportunity to work with ACG, and we look forward to supporting management, the principals and teachers as they continue to deliver outstanding educational outcomes." ACG’s Chairman, John Maasland, added “PEP has been clear from the outset that it wants to work with ACG’s existing Education Council, senior management team, principals and excellent teachers and tutors for the ongoing benefit of our students. This agreement will see ACG well positioned to expand and enhance our education services. This will include the growth of services for international students both in New Zealand and offshore, which will provide for continued reinvestment in the Group’s domestic facilities and services. It is also in line with the Government’s stated goal of doubling the size of New Zealand’s international education industry by 2025.” Founded in 1995 by Sir John Graham (ex-Auckland Grammar School headmaster) and Dawn Jones (ex- Diocesan School principal) ACG is best known for its private schools in Auckland, which provide students with a world-class academic education in an environment where achievement and excellence is celebrated. The Group also operates international schools in Vietnam and Indonesia, while in New Zealand it provides tertiary & careers training, early childhood education, English language and university foundation courses. ACG provides education and training to over 10,000 students per year, enabling each of those individuals to pursue their chosen pathway to further education or employment.

    ISA International Schools’ Assessment ISAInternational Schools’ Assessment 2018–2019 Information Pack Mathematical Literacy Reading Writing Scientific Literacy Australian Council for Educational Research What is the ISA? The ISA is a set of tests used by international schools and schools with an international focus to monitor student performance over time and confirm that their internal assessments are aligned with international expectations of performance. Designed and developed by the Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER), the ISA reading, mathematical literacy and scientific literacy assessments are based on the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA). PISA is developed under the auspices of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). Note that the ISA is not part of PISA and is not endorsed by the OECD. What is ACER? ACER is one of the world's leading educational research centres, committed to creating and promoting research-based knowledge, products and services that can be used to improve learning across the life span. ACER has built a strong reputation as a reliable provider of support and expertise to education policy makers and professional practitioners since it was established in 1930. The development of the ISA is linked to ACER’s work on PISA: ACER led a consortium of research and educational institutions as the major contractor to deliver the PISA project on behalf of the OECD from 2000 to 2012. What is PISA? PISA is a triennial international survey which aims to evaluate education systems worldwide by testing the skills and knowledge of nationally representative samples of 15-year-old students in key subjects: reading literacy, mathematical literacy and scientific literacy in order to inform national stakeholders about how well their education systems are preparing young people for life after compulsory education.

  • Next Top Engineering Scientist 2015 Judges Report
    Next Top Engineering Scientist 2015 Judges report The seventh annual “Next Top Engineering Scientist competition” was held from 9am to 6pm on Saturday August 1st, 2015. The question posed was “If a New Zealand student uploads a video clip that goes viral, how long will it take before 1% of the world’s population has seen it?” Teams calculated answers that ranged from just a few minutes through to never. The quality of submissions was generally high, with many teams using innovative approaches to solving the problem, including an increasing number of teams making use of computer programming. As with previous years the competition problem was purposefully constructed to be open-ended in nature. To answer the problem required teams to make sensible assumptions around various aspects of the problem including (but not limited to): • The definition of a viral video • The characteristics of the video (e.g. language, length and genre) • The potential audience • The propagation channels (e.g. youtube, facebook, twitter, etc.) Participation Statistics We had 179 teams from 68 schools participate this year (from Dargaville and Whangarei up in the north down to Oamaru and Dunedin in the South). 146 teams had four members and 33 teams had three members. The break down by year level was as follows: Year 11 1 Mixed year 11/12 2 Mixed year 11/13 1 Year 12 70 Mixed year 12/13 29 Year 13 76 A total of 173 teams managed to get a report in by the 6pm deadline and we had many “Action shot” photos submitted during the course of the day.
