Judith Margaret Parr (née Grant) is a New Zealand educational psychology academic. She is a full professor at the University of Auckland.
Academic career
After a secondary education at Matamata College (where her father was a teacher) and an undergraduate at the University of Auckland, 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.
Parr's research interests centre on literacy, particularly writing and has led to the publication of many documents for the Ministry of Education.
