Catch Up College January Intensive: We will again be offering our Catch Up College Intensive with face-to-face teaching from mid January for students needing 6-8 credits for UE or tertiary entry requirements. Catch Up College 2022 - Hagley College

Longer-term Catch Up: For students who require more than 6-8 credits we are able to offer enrolments in our Senior College with individualised programmes, with options of part-time study either for the full year or aiming for semester two tertiary course entry.

Certificate in University Preparation (CUP): The University of Canterbury’s CUP is a full-time, one semester, non-NCEA pathway to study at university. Enrolments are through the UC website: Certificate in University Preparation | University of Canterbury | University of Canterbury. While we no longer deliver the Academic writing and study skills (TRNS001) course at UC for full-time CUP students we do offer a semesterised Academic writing and study skills course at Te Puna Wai o Waipapa Hagley College with UC credit transfer for TRNS001. This means that students could opt to do this paper (TRNS001) with us part-time and to complete the full certificate at UC at a later date.

Te Kura (Correspondence School): Te Kura accepts short-term registrations over the summer break. Te Kura Summer School is a learning programme available for eligible ākonga (students) who require up to 12 NCEA credits to progress to further study, training, or employment.

“The teachers were so supportive and dedicated to helping me reach my goals. Summer School at Te Kura was by far the best decision I ever made.” – Summer School ākonga

“It was daunting at first because I had been out of school for a long time. My teacher was amazing at keeping me on track.” – Summer School ākonga
