This dynamic course is designed to ensure all students are prepared for NCEA and to be lifelong learners. Students learn to process and present ideas with understanding and confidence through exposure to classic and contemporary texts from Aotearoa and the world. The course develops students’ reading and writing skills to support literacy and offers a range of assessment opportunities to ensure that students become effective oral, written and visual communicators. Individual student need is met through differentiation in a diverse mixed ability setting with assessment and feedback designed to meet student need and clearly monitor progress against the New Zealand Curriculum.
