Academic career

After a secondary education at Matamata College (where her father was a teacher) and an undergraduate at the University of Auckland,[2] Parr did a 1989 PhD at Australian National University titled "Revision in writing: cognitive and linguistic aspects". She then returned to Auckland and became a full professor in 2011.[1]

Parr's research interests centre on literacy, particularly writing[3] and has led to the publication many documents for the Ministry of Education.[4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]
