Abstract

The Program for International Student Achievement (PISA) 2022 results show Aotearoa New Zealand (NZ) students’ maths, science and reading proficiency levels have dropped since 2018, and this is partially explained by the number of students coming to school hungry. For the first time, the PISA study included measures of food poverty, with NZ ranking second worst in the OECD for number of students missing meals due to lack of money.
