Kia ora tatou,
Welcome to NCEA Level 1 English! This year you will need to complete a minimum of 14 credits in Level 1 English. This CAN be achieved internally, but there is also the option of sitting external examinations in November.
We strive to put our best foot forward in English, students have choices over which assessments they can complete.
Whilst almost all Level 1 English credits (excluding the interview) count toward Level 1 Literacy, getting the 10 you need for literacy alone will not guarantee entry into NCEA Level 2 English.
If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to email me at sbr@waitarahs.school.nz, check out this year's course outline below to see what kind of work is completed by students in this course.
