We are delighted to inform you that King’s High School will be participating in the world-renowned ICAS Assessments for Science this year.

ICAS is developed by UNSW Global, a wholly owned subsidiary of the University of New South Wales, with over 35 years’ experience in educational assessments.

ICAS is designed to target students’ higher-order thinking and problem-solving skills in Science

Each assessment celebrates students’ accomplishments by providing opportunities for recognition. Every student will receive a certificate and an online result report. Top performers will be eligible for medals and are invited to attend special award ceremonies to have their academic excellence publicly recognised.

We encourage you to consider entering your child into ICAS this year. The assessments are suitable for students wishing to extend themselves academically and take up the personal challenge of competing in an international assessment. Your child will be presented with high-quality, expert-developed questions, allowing them to apply their learning without the need for prior study or revision.

If you would like to register your son for this assessment, please do so by emailing Mrs. Jopson directly jp@kingshigh.school.nz to request more information and a permission slip. 

 Please note, there is a $15 charge per student. 

Registrations are due on June 21st.
