Qualitative data

The Ministry is migrating nzmaths content to Tāhurangi.           
Relevant and up-to-date teaching resources are being moved to Tāhūrangi (tahurangi.education.govt.nz). 
When all identified resources have been successfully moved, this website will close. We expect this to be in June 2024. 
e-ako maths, e-ako Pāngarau, and e-ako PLD 360 will continue to be available.

Data in which the values can be organised into distinct groups. These distinct groups must be chosen so they do not overlap and so that every value belongs to one and only one group, and there should be no doubt as to which one.

Example

The eye colours of a class of Year 9 students.

Note: The Curriculum usage of category data is equivalent to qualitative data.
