NCEA examinations and upcoming dates for Senior School students.

NCEA Examinations

As noted in previous communications, we do encourage students to sit all external standards they are entered into. At this time, due to NZQA dates set earlier in the year, we are unable to withdraw students from external standards for exams. This means if they do not turn up for their exam, they will get an ‘SNA’/ student not assessed on their academic record.

Upcoming Dates for Senior School Students

This is the time of year when the number of events begins to increase dramatically. For this reason, please note the upcoming dates for Senior School students and parents.

• Last 2 weeks of Term 4: Year 10 End of Year Program.
