The new challenges hitting NZ's education sector - from AI in exams to rising mental health concerns
Description
Society is always under pressure to keep up – given the world around us is in a constant state of change.
Our education sector is no different.
Education officials are attempting to crack down on the use of artificial intelligence in NCEA exams, after a rise in substantiated breaches last year.

Today on The Front Page, Newstalk ZB education reporter Jaime Cunningham joins us to discuss the multitude of problems facing the education sector.
