About Jane

Jane White serves as Senior Professional Practice Fellow in the College of Education at the University of Otago, based in the Educational Assessment Research Unit (EARU). She holds a Bachelor of Education (BEd) from the University of Otago, a Diploma of Teaching (DipTchg) from Dunedin College of Education, and Licentiate of the Trinity College of Music London (L.T.C.L.) in Speech and Drama. As a qualified primary education teacher, White contributes significantly to national educational assessment initiatives. Her current role centers on the Curriculum Insights and Progress Study, a collaborative project between the University of Otago and the New Zealand Council for Educational Research, contracted by the Ministry of Education. This large-scale study monitors trends in student achievement in English-medium state and state-integrated schools, building on predecessors such as the National Monitoring Study of Student Achievement (NMSSA, 2011-2022) and the National Education Monitoring Project (NEMP, 1995-2010).
