 Understanding NCEA

• New Zealand's National Certificate of Educational

Achievement (NCEA): national qualification for senior
secondary school students.

• Credits and grades awarded for skills and knowledge.

Enables students to gain credits from both traditional
school curriculum areas and alternative programmes.

• NCEA qualifications recognised by employers,

selection by universities and polytechnics both in NZ
and overseas.
 How it works….

• Students select and study a number of courses or

subjects.

• Skills and knowledge assessed against a number of

standards. E.g. a Physical Education standard: 1.6
Demonstrate strategies to improve the performance of
a physical activity and describe the outcomes.

• Use of internal and external assessments to measure

how well students meet these standards.
• When a student achieves a standard, they gain a
certain number of credits. Students must achieve a
specific number of credits at each year level to gain an
NCEA certificate.

• There are three levels of NCEA. Students work through

levels 1 to 3 in years 11 to 13 at school.

• Students are recognised for achievement at each level

by gaining NCEA with Achieved, Merit or Excellence.
 NCEA Levels
• NCEA Level 1 (Year 11)
• 80 credits are required at any level (level 1, 2 or 3)
• Including 10 literacy and 10 numeracy credits (minimum) from
specified standards.

• NCEA Level 2 (Year 12)

• 60 credits at level 2 or above
+ 20 credits from any level
• + Level 1 Literacy and Numeracy requirements

• NCEA Level 3 (Year 13)

• 60 credits at level 3 or above
+ 20 credits from level 2 or above
• + Level 1 Literacy and Numeracy requirements
 Literacy & Numeracy

• Literacy & Numeracy requirements: minimum of 10

credits through either:
- Specified achievement standards
- Specified unit standards
- Both are available through a range of subjects
 Standards
• Achievement Standards are developed by M.O.E.

• Describes what a student needs to know, what they must

be able to achieve in order to meet the standard. Gain
credits.

• Each standard has a defined credit value, and a level

representing complexity of skills and knowledge.

• Credits are recorded on Record of Achievement.

 Types of Standards

• Students can achieve two types of standard - unit

standards and achievement standards.

• Unit standards are competency based

• Achievement standards are New Zealand

curriculum based
 How Standards are
Achieved
• Beginning of a new topic, teacher states what will be
assessed, how, credit value.

• Teacher prepares students for assessment

• If student passes, standard is achieved, credits awarded.

• Assessments measure what a student knows or can do

against the registered criteria of a standard in courses they
study. If they meet the criteria, they achieve the standard,
and gain credits.
 Achievement Standards
• Four grades:
Not achieved (N) if students do not meet the criteria of the
standard

Achieved (A) for a satisfactory performance

Merit (M) for very good performance

Excellence (E) for outstanding performance

• Usually considered “more academic

 Unit Standards

• Two grades:
Achieved (A) for meeting the criteria of the
standard

• Not achieved (N) if a student does not meet

the criteria of the standard

• Usually considered “less academic”

 Phasing out of
Unit Standards
• Unit standards have been “phased out”
starting in 2011, replaced with Achievement
Standards.

• Level 1 in 2011, Level 2 in 2012, and Level 3

in 2013.

• Some still “floating around”.

 Positives

• Increasingly important that students plan their

course pathway carefully gaining pre-requisites
for future courses, keeping options open for
future careers and tertiary studies

• Provides opportunity for all students to gain

higher grades in assessments rather than just
pass/fail.

• Encourages “less academic” students to try

harder.
 Negatives
• Selection of appropriate Achievement Standards to suit
students.

• Increased workload for teachers – re-writing Achievement

Standards, appropriate activities, marking schedules,
re-assessments, moderation at end of the year.

• Reduced the flexibility teachers had with NCEA. Unit

Standards have advantages for many students because they
are delivered in small chunks, internally assessed, more
practically based with a smaller theoretical component.
 Negatives

• May disadvantage “less academic” students.

• NZQA to check all changes made to

Achievement standards.
 Internal Assessment

• Internal assessments are used to assess skills

and knowledge that cannot be tested in an
exam, e.g. speeches, research projects and
practical performances.

• Senior Physical Education all internally

assessed.
 External Assessment

• Most external assessments are by

examination at the end of the year. For some
subjects, e.g. Technology or Visual Arts,
students submit a portfolio of their work at
the end of year.

• No external assessments for Senior Physical

Education
 What happens if a student
does not achieve
• Resubmission – a chance for students to quickly
fix up some minor errors that would affect their
final grade.

• Only offered when a teacher judges that a mistake

has been made by the student, which the student
should be capable of discovering and correcting
themselves.

• No more than one resubmission

 Resubmissions

• “General advice”

• Must take place before the teacher gives any feedback

to the whole class (or any student) on the work done.

• If more teaching has occurred, resubmission is not

possible

• Professional judgement about what would be a

reasonable time to offer
 Reassessments

• Reassessment - a further opportunity and must

be a completely new assessment.

• Extra teaching is required.

• Schools may allow students to have further

assessment opportunities for internally assessed
standards later in the year. Students can have up
to one further assessment per standard per year.
 Internal Moderation

• Moderation of each standard is required to

ensure assessment is fair across all students
regardless of the school they attend.

• Marking of student work by subject teachers

within each school, following specific marking
schedule for each standard.

• Meeting with other subject teachers in same

department.
 External Moderation

• Consistent internal assessment decisions

across all secondary schools.

• NZQA employs moderators.

• Moderators run best practice workshops,

develop resources, speak to meetings of
subject associations.
 External Moderation

• Check each school’s assessment tasks and

activities, and judgements schools are making
when they assess student work.

• Check a sample of about 10% of each school’s

internally assessed work.

• School receives a report on quality of internal

assessment
 University Entrance
• NCEA Level 3

• Three subjects at Level 3 made up of:

- 14 credits each in three separate “approved subjects”

- Literacy – 10 credits at Level 2 or above :

- 5 credits in writing
- 5 credits in reading

- Numeracy – 10 credits at Level 1 or above:

- specified Achievement Standards
 Scholarship
• Monetary award to recognise top secondary school students
within each subject area.

• Scholarship exams externally assessed, additional set of exams.

• Does not receive credits/contribute towards qualification

• Appears on Record of Learning

• Approx. 3% Yr13 studying each subject awarded scholarship.

• PE – Use to be a 3hr examination, 2016 now a 30-pg report.
 Certificate
Endorsement
• When students perform consistently above the
'Achieved' level, their result(s) can be 'endorsed' to
reflect that high achievement.

• At each NCEA Level – e.g a student gains 50 credits at

Excellence, their NCEA certificate will be endorsed
with Excellence. Likewise, if a student gains 50 credits
at Merit (or Merit and Excellence), their NCEA will be
endorsed with Merit.

• This is shown on their Record of Achievement.

 Certificate
Endorsement
• Credits earned can count towards an
endorsement over more than one year and
more than one level. However, they must be
gained at the level of the certificate or above.
For example, Level 2 credits will count
towards endorsement of a Level 1 NCEA, but
Level 1 credits will not count towards
endorsement of a Level 2 NCEA
 Course Endorsement

• Course endorsement provides recognition for a

student who has performed exceptionally well in an
individual course.

• 14 or more credits at Merit or Excellence

• At least 3 of these credits from externally assessed

standards and 3 credits from internally assessed
standards (this however does not apply to Physical
Education, Religious Studies and Level 3 Visual Arts).
 Course Endorsement

• A course endorsement can be awarded even if

a qualification for that level is not achieved.
For example, a student may achieve a Merit
endorsement for their Level 2 Mathematics
course regardless of whether they achieve
NCEA Level 2.
 NCEA Results overseas
• NCEA is New Zealand's national school-leaver qualification.
Overseas universities usually require international students
applying for admission to have achieved the university entrance
standard set by the country in which they studied.

• Generally accepted in the United States, Australia and the United

Kingdom (UK).

• NCEA level 3 is broadly equivalent to:

- the UK General Certificate of Education (GCE) A-level
- the relevant state or territory Senior Secondary Certificate of
Education in Australia.
