Getting to the business end of the year!
Senior Students will be released from school for exams on Wednesday 2nd November. NCEA Exams begin on Monday 7th November and finish on Friday 2nd December.
For many students they have already gained their NCEA Level Qualification. However, this does not mean they should not sit any of their External exams that they are entered into. Sitting exams is an important skill for students who are wanting to go off to University or further training course after leaving school. These institutions will be looking at the student’s exam marks rather than their internal marks. Also, for some students, it means a chance of gaining an Endorsement in a subject area or an overall Endorsement for their level. Therefore, we expect to see full attendance of all students at all exams and seek your support in this matter.
Students will be issued with exam slips on Tuesday 1st November, which lists the exams they are entered into. Please check these slips so you know when your child has an exam. The NCEA exam timetable is also attached.
