Improve the economy and student outcomes in one go
I was reading the South China Morning Post in a cafe in the City Gate mall in Hong Kong, as you do on a Saturday morning, and spotted an article about a great scheme to kick start the economy in the Fujian province. They were offering 10 bonus marks on the high school entrance exam for children whose parents spent more than $284K on property. For some reason there was a bit of an outcry against the scheme and they had to withdraw it. I think someone in the NZ ministry should pick this idea up and run with it
