Dear Enquiries National,

Thank you very much for the reply, although a little disappointing.
Unfortnuately, the link in the document does not work, as it brings up "forbidden 403" when clicked on https://www.educationcounts.govt.nz/__da... and i have been unable to locate the source docunment. So, i have searched for the data on the https://www.educationcounts.govt.nz/stat... website and statistics page, which has the information that you claim to not hold, broken down by New Plymouth (171), South Taranaki (54) and Stratford District (47), a total 272 students at 2023. The data is recorded as Very High & High Needs, and Extension (please define), from years 2006-2023, High Health Needs is not noted/recorded in this document. This indicates that the information is held and that there is possibly further information that informs the total numbers.

Perhaps, we could give this another go? Can the above and any other relevant source data be analysed and updated to as recent as possible, broken down into the three regions (New Plymouth, South Taranaki and Stratford) into:
Students by age 5-21
Students by category HN, VHN & SHHNF
Total number of children enrolled in schooling in the same three regions.

I look forward to a revised response

Yours sincerely,

Craig Nielsen
