Covid-19: Gratitude for NCEA exams extension

From Morning Report, 6:46 am on 1 September 2021

But one principal says their anxiety levels are still going through the roof - especially in Auckland where a quarter of a million children face at least two more weeks of home learning.

Vaughan Couillault who's principal of Papatoetoe High School and president of the Secondary Principals' Association, said the extra time is a big help for now.
