The curriculum offered at Darfield High School enables every student to participate in the eight Learning Areas of the New Zealand Curriculum, in order to gain the knowledge and understanding needed for a broad and balanced education. They provide the context within which knowledge, skills, attitudes, and values are developed. Subject combinations are arranged to suit the majority of students. Courses will run provided that there are sufficient students to form a class, that staffing is available, and that the requested combination of classes can be timetabled. If a class size is too small to timetable, it may be possible for the student to be enrolled through Distance Learning. National Certificates, National Examinations, and NCEA are available from Level 1 to Level 3. Acceleration and flexibility are possible, as students can select from any NCEA Level course. It is strongly recommended that students speak with their Dean to find the best fit for them and their future pathways.

The Zonta Young Women in Public Affairs Award (YWPA) is currently open for applications.
