Welcome to NCEA Level 2 English. You will analyse different texts and unpack what the creator's purpose is. You will learn how to articulate your thoughts in a sophisticated fashion. You will be working on Internal Assessments throughout the year which will be based on the written and visual texts that we will explore as a class. You will also be preparing for External Assessments (exams). For this you will be assessed on the extended and visual texts that we have studied in class. Check out our Course Outline for Level 2 English. Please find the year planner below.
