Changes to NCEA Credits

Katrina Kerr-Bell —

Some good news however still hard mahi ahead for our Year 13's to get University Entrance.

The Government has decided that students disrupted by 16 days of COVID-19 lockdown this year will be eligible to receive Learning Recognition Credits (LRCs) at a rate of 1 LRC per 5 credits achieved through assessment, up to a cap of 8 LRCs at NCEA Level 1, and 6 LRCs and Levels 2 and 3.

The thresholds for being awarded endorsements and University Entrance will remain at their normal levels for students who have not been disrupted for 20 school days.  This means that Year 13 students need to achieve 14 credits in three University Approved subjects.  If you are unsure about this please contact us and we will explain this to you and how it applies to your daughter.
