Because of the disruption COVID-19 has caused to secondary school students, the following changes to NCEA assessment dates will apply to all students:

• The dates for end of year NCEA and NZ Scholarship exams will be moved back by two weeks. Examinations will now be held between Monday 22 November and Tuesday 14 December.
• NCEA subjects where students prepare a portfolio instead of sitting an exam – like Design and Visual Communication – will have the due date for these portfolios pushed back by two weeks.

These changes will give students and schools more time to prepare for the end of the year.
