Buckle up, because household interest payments are expected to double by mid next year, forcing more borrowers to default on their mortgages. In its latest Financial Stability Report, the Reserve Bank is forecasting the average share of disposable income used to pay interest will hit 18 percent in 2024, doubling the lows of two years ago. People who bought homes in 2020 and 2021, at high debt to income ratios are expected to feel the most pain. About two thirds of mortgages that were fixed at very low interest rates during the pandemic have now rolled over to pricier loans, although the Reserve Bank says most borrowers have so far been about to cut discretionary spending to make ends meet. But there is a rider and its a chunky one; that could all change if the job market softens and people start losing work. ASB chief economist, Nick Tuffley, speaks to Lisa Owen.

It's a resounding fail for Gloriavale Christian school according to its latest ERO report card. The private school operates out of the secretive community on the West coast of the South Island about 60km east of Greymouth. Former leaders and members have been convicted of child abuse and the employment court recently ruled young people who worked long hours in extremely punishing conditions since they were children were in fact employees and not volunteers. Now according to the Education Review Office report, the school's list of failings is long and serious. Not all the school's managers have passed a fit and proper persons assessment. And ERO is not assured the health and safety of students is being sufficiently monitored. Almost 20% of the enrolled students are not turning up class. 25 students from a special class are supposidly being taught at home by their mothers, but they don't have home school exemptions. Older boys have a secondary teacher while girls of the same age are taught by an early childhood teacher. And schooling stops at year 10, before NCEA kicks in. The report concludes Gloriavale Christian School is not providing an adequate education and doesn't meet the criteria for registration as a private school. The Education Review Office declined to be interviewed. Victory Disciple is a former student and a teacher at Gloriavale. She, along with her husband Hopeful and six children left in 2021: both believe the school should be shut down.
