The development of materials to support the NCEA Change Programme is based on meeting the five principles of a strong NCEA qualification — coherence, credibility, equity and inclusion, pathways, and well-being.
Subjects | Wāhanga Ako
Most NCEA Level 1 subjects were developed in 2021. Four subjects were developed earlier as part of the Trial and Pilots initiative. Te Ao Haka was developed on a separate timeline with all three levels developed at the same time. Te Reo Māori and New Zealand Sign Language also had slightly different development timelines to meet the specific needs of those subjects. All NCEA Level 1 subjects were piloted ahead of implementation. NCEA Level 1 was implemented in 2024.
Development of NCEA Level 2 materials for Te Marautanga o Aotearoa wāhanga ako and New Zealand Curriculum subjects began in 2022. There are 68 Level 2 subjects — 12 wāhanga ako derived from Te Marautanga o Aotearoa, and 56 subjects derived from the New Zealand Curriculum. Further development of Level 2 is currently on hold.
Subject Expert Groups
Subject Expert Groups have supported development of subject materials to date as advisory groups, comprised of teachers, industry experts, academics, and specialists with critical perspectives in the subjects.
During the development of NCEA Level 1, subject materials were published for public engagement. Each Subject Expert Group prepared a report in response to this feedback. Read the responses from the SEGs

English
A lot of things that we're currently experiencing on our planet are social and ecological challenges. It’s really important in this subject that students identify and think about solutions and then how they would enact those solutions in their own lives.
That develops the skills that they need in order to live in a more sustainable way. This subject is about helping students create a deeper connection with their environment and the world around them, and ultimately giving them the skills to create a sustainable future.
The Big Ideas are really based around connection. We need to connect to our place to want to support it, save it and improve it. It's about taking action and empowerment, and then it's about the knowledge that we need to enable that to be the best action we can take and best practice globally to act locally.
Building opportunities for students to actually deepen their connection is really important and that can be achieved in multiple ways.
Experiential learning - actually getting students out in the environment is really important. But there are other ways of doing that as well. When I frame the subject with my tauira, my students, I'm talking about what we're doing now and what consequences will that have.
Our students come with a huge depth of ideas already, and it's up to us as educators to cater to those.
The current project that we want to do is changing lights in our school. So basically decarbonization. It’s really important because of the fact that we are the next generation. We are the ones that will be leading this country.
It's not just about planting a tree; it's actually understanding why the tree needs to go there. What is the problem we're trying to solve here? So it's actually a lot deeper than just taking action; it's an action-taking process.
One of the skills that I personally and I can see in my other peers that we develop is researching skills, the ability to find new evidence based on the websites we go to. The skill is very, very useful for later life, such as if you're going into law, if you're going into journalism.
This recent emergency in Aotearoa, New Zealand has shown that creative and innovative skills that young people bring are absolutely essential for future and working together. Obviously, we’ve been affected with the severe weather events this year. We’re getting a school rebuild and last year we ran an inquiry looking at where would be the best place to put the school and what areas could be flood-prone.
What we predicted happened this year and so that was a real lightbulb moment for our students, to promote agency and to really see the subject as being real and now. I was always wondering like - will this actually happen? Will we actually need this?
And I didn't realize that it would actually come in handy until our school got flooded. What we're doing is actually valuable. Stuff like this could have actually been stopped but obviously, people didn't take it seriously.
Students need to know that this is a really legitimate career path. We need to make our young people understand that this is really viable for work for now and in the future, and it will become more and more important.
Every aspects of our lives in terms of what we do for commerce and agriculture and even just day-to-day living has to have a sustainable aspect to it. Learning this subject students will be able to take away the skills and knowledge which are going to help them to live in a very successful world.

He maha ngā mea e pā nei ki a mātou i tēnei wā i runga i tō tātou nei aorangi, he wero pāpori, taiao hoki.

Mā reira e whakawhanake ai nga pūkenga e hiahia ana rātou kia toitū ake ai tō rātou noho.
Ko tā te kaupapa nei he āwhina i ngā ākonga kia nui ake tō rātou hononga ki tō rātou taiao me te ao e karapoti ana i a rātou, ā, hei te mutunga iho, ki te tuku ki a rātou i nga pūkenga kia toitū te noho mō anamata.
Ko te pūtake kē o ngā Whakaaro Nui ko te hononga. Me mate tātou ki te hono ki tō tātou wāhi, ki te pīrangi ki te tautoko i tērā, whakaora i tērā, whakapai ake i tērā hoki.
Mō te mahi i te mahi tēnei me te whakamanatanga, ā, mō te mātauranga hoki me hiahia tātou kia āhei ai kia tū tērā hei te mahi pai rawa atu ka taea e tātou i runga anō i te tikanga pai katoa ā-ao ki te mahi ā-rohe.
He mea nui whakahirahira te hanga i nga āheinga mā ngā ākonga ki te whakahōhonu mārika i ō rātou hononga, ā, ka taea tērā te whakatutuki mā ngā huarahi maha.
Te ako ā-wheako - ko te putanga tonutanga o ngā ākonga ki te taiao he mea nui whakahirahira.
Engari he huarahi kē atu hoki kia tutuki pai ai tērā.
Ka whakamārama atu ana au i te Kaupapa ki aku ākonga, ka kōrero au i ngā mahi e mahia nei e tātou i tēnei wā me ngā hua ka puta i ērā. Kua toko kē ake i ā mātou ākonga e hia nei te nui o ngā whakaaro hōhonu, ā, ko tā mātou hei kaiwhakaako he āwhina kia whāia aua mea.
Ko te kaupapa o te wā e hia whai ana mātou ko te whakawhiti i ngā rama i tō mātou kura.
Arā, ko te whakaiti tukuwaro. He mea nui whakahirahira nā te mea ko mātou ko te reanga e whai ake nei. Ko mātou ērā ka ārahi i tēnei whenua. Ehara i te mea mō te whakatō noa i tētahi rākau; ko te māramatanga kētanga he aha e hiahiatia ai kia tū te rākau ki kōrā.
He aha te rapanga e whakamātautauria nei e mātou kia oti ki konei? Nō reira he nui kē atu te hōhonu o tēnei i te mahi noa i te mahi; Ko te mahi i te mahi te pūtake o tēnei tukanga.
Mōku ake, kotahi o ngā pūkenga ka whakawhanake au, ā, ka taea e au te kite tērā i aku hoa aropā ko ngā pūkenga rangahau, te āheinga kia kitea ngā mea whai taunaki ki ngā pae tukutuku e haere rā ai mātou.
He tino, tino whaitake tēnei pūkenga hei kō ake nei i roto i te koiora, hei tauira, kia tū koe hei rōia, ki te whai koe rānei i te haurapa kōrero. Kua whakaaturia e te āhuatanga ohotata nō nā noa nei i Aotearoa, ko ngā pūkenga auaha, aronga hou hoki e haria mai nei e ngā rangatahi he mea waiwai mārika mō anamata, ā, mō te mahi tahi.
Mārakerake ana te kitea, kua pāngia tatou e ngā āhuatanga huarere taumaha i tēnei tau. Ka hangaia anō te kura, ā, nō tērā tau ka tū i a mātou he uiuinga, ko tōna aronga kei hea te wāhi pai rawa atu hei whakanoho i te kura, ā, hei aha ngā wāhi ka pāngia pea e ngā waipuke.
Ko tā mātou i matapae ai, ka puta i tēnei tau me te aha, ka tino taka te kapa mō ā mātou ākonga, ki te kōkiri i te kahawhiri me te kite mārika i te kaupapa nei hei mea tūturu, onāianei tonu hoki.
Mai rā anō au e mahara ana - ka puta mārika tēnei? Ka hiahia mārika mātou ki tēnei? Kāore au i tino mōhio ka whaitake tonu tēnei tae noa kia waipuketia tō mātou kura. Ko tā mātou e mahi nei he mea whai painga. Ko ngā āhuatanga pēnei ka taea māriretia te ārai engari, e mārama ana, kāore I kitea e te tangata hei tairaru.
Me mōhio mai ngā ākonga ko tēnei he ara umanga whaimana. Ko tā mātou he whakamōhio i ā mātou nei rangatahi he huarahi ka taea tēnei ki te mahi mō nāianei, mō anamata hoki, ā, ka nui haere, ka nui haere tōna hiranga.
Katoa ngā āhuatanga o ō tātou nei ao ahakoa e pā ana ki te tauhokohoko me te ahuwhenua ahakoa tonu ko te noho noa o ia rā, me whai i tētahi taha toitū. Mā te ako i tēnei Kaupapa e taea ai e ngā ākonga te hari atu ngā pūkenga me ngā mātauranga mā ērā e āwhina rātou ki te noho i tētahi ao angitu.

- Transcript: EnglishAs part of the Review of Achievement Standards
English
As part of the Review of Achievement Standards, a total of 67 NCEA Level 2 subjects from both Te Marautanga o Aotearoa and The New Zealand Curriculum are being developed during 2022 and 2023. One of the new subjects being developed is Pacific Studies.
Apart from a rich body of ancient knowledge, there is also quite a body of contemporary knowledge centred around the Pacific. Many of our young people in Aoteaora, in particular Pasifika young people, don't actually know about this body of knowledge nor do they think it even exists.
Offering Pacific Studies as an NCEA subject immediately aligns it with all our other NCEA subjects at school. And so it makes it more acceptable and more accessible as well.
Adding Pacific Studies as an Achievement Standard will directly increase the mana of the subject. I think one of the biggest issues, even if you were to teach it very well as a unit standard, the weighting of the credit that you award the student is not the same in that you know....What kind of message do we send to our kids here who try hard in Pacific Studies and their credit is not the same as like say like a mainstream, like Social Science.
As a Pacific student in high school, I found that a lot of my experiences to do with being Pacific was done outside of the classroom and not inside a subject. Sort of more informal learning through things like Poly Club, choir, and stuff like that. It sort of made me feel sometimes like I was living a double life.
Sometimes we do get ourself lost in the Palagi world. I feel like for Pasifika students in New Zealand, it's still important to stay connected to your roots.
Any differences in student outcomes should not be because of who they are, you know, where they come from.
So Pacific Studies as an NCEA subject just provides schools with that wonderful opportunity to be able to reduce that equity gap in terms of learning.
It's important for us to have knowledge or even if it's not towards Pasifika students, it would be great if all the other students would also be able to know knowledge about us and our values and our culture.
Seeing themselves in the learning increases that sense of belonging - belonging not just to the school but belonging to Aotearoa. I think that's a fundamental opportunity that this Pacific Studies as an NCEA course will give to everybody.
Te Reo Māori
Hei wāhanga nō te Arotake o ngā Paerewa Paetae, kei te whakahoutia ngā kaupapa ako e 67 mō te Taumata 2 o te NCEA mai te Te Marautanga o Aotearoa me te New Zealand Curriculum hei ngā tau 2022 me 2023.
Ko tētahi o ngā kaupapa hou ka whakaritea, ko ngā Akoranga Moana-nui-a-Kiwa. Hei āpiti ki ngā mātauranga tuku iho, tērā anō ngā mātauranga onāianei e hāngai ana ki te Moana-nui-a-Kiwa.
He tokomaha tonu ā tātau rangatahi o Aotearoa nei, tae atu ki ngā rangatahi e whakapapa ana ki te Moana-nui-a-Kiwa, kāore i te mōhio ki ēnei mātauranga kāore hoki i te mōhio e wātea ana ēnei mātauranga.
Mā te whakarato atu i ngā Akoranga Moana-nui-a-Kiwa hei kaupapa ako i te NCEA e āta whakahāngai tēnei ki ngā kaupapa ako katoa o te NCEA kei ngā kura.
Mā konei, ka nui ake te whakaaetanga me te whai āheinga hoki. Mā te whakauru atu i ngā Akoranga Moana-nui-a-Kiwa hei Paerewa Paetae ka āta whakapiki i te mana o tēnei kaupapa ako.
Ki tōku whakaaro, ko tētahi o ngā take nui, ahakoa he tino pai te whakaako i ngā mahi nei hei paerewa,ko te uara o te piro ka whakawhiwhia atu ki te ākonga, kāore e ōrite ana nō te mea e mōhio ana koe.
He aha te momo kōrero ka tukua atu ki ā tātau tamariki kei te āta whakapau kaha ki ngā Akoranga Moana-nui-a-Kiwa ā, kāore tā rātau piro i te ōrite ki tētahi kaupapa auraki, pēnei i te Akoranga Hapori. Nōku i noho hei ākonga Moana-nui-a-Kiwa ki te kura tuarua, i kite atu au he nui ōku wheako mō te noho hei tangata Moana-nui-a-Kiwa ka akona e au ki waho atu o te akomanga, kaua ki roto i te kaupapa ako.
Ko ngā momo ako ōpaki i ngā mahi pēnei i te Kapa Poly, te tira waiata me ngā mahi pēnā. Ko te āhua ka tau mai ki au i ētahi wā, he matarua tōku ao.
Tērā ētahi wā ka ngaro mātau i te ao Palagi. Kei te whakapono au, he mea nui mō ngā ākonga Moana-nui-a-Kiwa ki Aotearoa, kia taimau te hono ki tō whakapapa. Ko ngā rerekētanga i ngā hua ako a ngā ākonga me kaua e ara ake i te tuakiri o te ākonga, arā, nō hea mai te ākonga.
Nō reira ko te noho o ngā Akoranga Moana-nui-a-Kiwa hei kaupapa ako ki NCEA ka whakawhiwhi ki ngā kura he tino angitu whakahirahira hei whakaiti haere i te wehenga tautika mō te ako.
He mea nui tonu kia whai mātauranga mātau ahakoa kāore pea i te hāngai ki ngā ākonga Moana-nui-a-Kiwa, he pai hoki mehemea ka taea e ākonga kē te whai mōhiotanga mō mātau me ō mātau uara me tō mātau ahurea.
Ko te kite i a rātau tonu ki roto i ngā akoranga ka whakapiki haere i te whai wāhitanga, arā, ko te whai wāhi ki te kura, ko te whai wāhi hoki ki Aotearoa. Ki au nei, he tino angitu tūāpapa tēnei ka tukua e tēnei Akoranga Moana-nui-a-Kiwa hei kaupapa ako NCEA ki te katoa.

- Transcript: EnglishAs part of the Review of Achievement Standards
English
As part of the Review of Achievement Standards, a total of 67 NCEA Level 2 subjects from both Te Marautanga o Aotearoa and The New Zealand Curriculum are being developed during 2022 and 2023. One of the new subjects being developed is Tourism.
In terms of Tourism, it falls in the Social Sciences learning area. So before, it was very prescriptive. There wasn't a clear curriculum. It was very assessment-focussed. But now with being Achievement Standards, we have the idea that our students are going to have a robust, challenging, cohesive curriculum with big ideas, with significant learning, with really cool, exciting assessment tasks and activities.
It's going to have far more of a te ao Māori, mātauranga Māori focus to it. We're also going to be talking about the idea and getting students to explore the idea of ethically and responsible tourism.
So the key differences, I would say, between the Unit Standards, which we currently teach in Tourism, and the Achievement Standards, which will be coming in, will be that the information that the students will be dealing with will be in greater detail.
We'll be expecting some critical thinking from them. It will be up-to-date because we'll be linking closely with the tourism industry so that our students are better organised and ready for the next stage of tertiary training and then into what the industry is actually going to develop and regenerate into.
A big part of Social Sciences is being able to understand perspectives, being able to understand and think about solutions around decision-making, but probably, most importantly, be critical thinkers. So that idea of moving from Unit Standards to Achievement Standards has also meant that the students can gain Merits and Excellences whereas they didn't used to be able to do that.
The learnings which the students have in the secondary system are going to be more closely aligned to what the expectations will be in the tertiary programmes. For the industry, it will be miles, miles better for the students because they'll be more ready for what they're actually going to experience.
What we are really keen to see is that students will have the ability to critically analyse and think about tourism as a system in New Zealand - all its different parts, how it contributes to our culture, our society as well as our economy. And so we're really looking forward to seeing all of those doors opened for students.
By studying much earlier rather than waiting till later in tertiary education, we're actually making sure that people make a vocational choice that will put them in good stead because we want people to be passionate about the industry from early on in their life.
I think being able to offer Tourism as an Achievement subject will just kind of help to showcase our industry to students. There are so many viable options in tourism. You can travel, can lead a team, you can be a general manager. And I think tourism is great because you can work your way up the industry.
Tourism going from a Unit Standard to an Achievement Standard recognises the importance of tourism to New Zealand. But it also elevates the status of studying Tourism for our students so that it gives them a great pathway into tertiary education, and that’s fantastic.
Te Reo Māori
Hei wāhanga nō ngā mahi arotake i ngā paerewa paetae, tērā ngā kaupapa e 67 o te NCEA taumata tuarua mai i te Te Marautanga o Aotearoa me te New Zealand Curriculum ka waihangatia hei ngā tau 2022 me 2023.
Ko tētahi o ngā kaupapa hou nei ka waihangatia ko te mahi tāpoi. Mō te mahi tāpoi nei, ka taka ki roto i te wāhanga ako o ngā pūtaiao hapori. Nā, he mea āta tohutohu ngā mahi i mua kāore he marautanga mārama, i tino aro ki ngā mahi aromatawai.
Engari kua huri ināianei hei paerewa paetae, kei te whai whakaaro mātau tērā pea ka whai ā mātau ākonga i tētahi marautanga kaha, whai wero, hāngai hoki, he nui ngā whakaaro nunui, he whakahirahira hoki te ako, me ngā mahi me ngā hohe aromatawai e tino rawe ana, e whakahīkaka ana hoki.
Ka nui noa atu te arotahi ki te ao Māori, me te mātauranga Māori. Ka kōrero hoki mātau mō te whakaaro, ka whakatenatena hoki i ngā ākonga ki te tautoro, i ngā āhuatanga o te mahi tāpoi e matatika ana, e haepapa ana hoki.
Nā, ki a au, ko ngā tino rerekētanga i waenga i ngā paerewa, e whakaako ana mātou ināianei mō te mahi tāpoi, me ngā paerewa paetae ka whakaritea mai, ka nui kē atu ngā mokamoka mōhiohio ka whakamahia e ngā ākonga.
Ko tā mātau kawatau, ka puta te whakaaro arohaehae i a rātau. Ka moroki ngā akoranga nō te mea ka āta mahi tahi mātau ki te rāngai tāpoi, kia nahanaha ake ā mātau ākonga, kia rite hoki rātau ki te kuhu atu ki te taumata o runga i ngā akoranga kura tuatoru ki te kuhu atu hoki ki tā te rāngai tāpoi e huri nei, e whakahou nei.
Ko tētahi wāhi nui o ngā pūtaiao pāpori ko te āhei kia mārama ki ngā tirohanga rerekē, ko te āhei hoki kia mārama, kia whai whakairo hoki ki ngā urupare e pā ana ki ngā mahi whakatau take, engari ia ko te mea nui tonu, kia noho hei tangata whakaaro arohaehae.
Nā, ko tētahi āhuatanga o te neke i ngā paerewa ki ngā paerewa paetae ka āhei ngā ākonga kia whai i ngā taumata kaiaka, kairangi hoki, kāore i taea te pēnei i mua.
Ko ngā akoranga ka tukua ki ngā ākonga kei ngā kura tuarua ka whakahāngaitia kia kaha ake te hāngai ake ki ngā taumata e hiahiatia ana i ngā hōtaka kura tuatoru.
Mō te rāngai, ka tino pai kē atu, tēnei mā ngā ākonga nō te mea ka rite rātau mō ngā momo mahi ka wheako nei rātau i te mahi. Ko tā mātau e tino whai nei kia taea e ngā ākonga te āheinga ki te tātari me te whai whakairo ki te tāpoi hei pūnaha ki Aotearoa, ōna wāhanga katoa, te pēhea hoki ōna e whai wāhi mai ki tō tātau ahurea, tō tātau pāpori, me tō tātau ohanga hoki.
Nō reira mātau te titiro whakamua nei ki ngā kūaha katoa ka tuwhera ki ngā ākonga. Mā te ako tōmua, arā kaua ko te tatari kia tae ki te kura tuatoru kei te āta whakarite mātau tērā ka whai te tangata i te kōwhiringa whai mahi ka whai hua ai rātau, nō te mea hoki kei te pīrangi mātau kia ngākau whiwhita te tangata ki tēnei rāngai mai i ngā tau tōmua o tana ao.
Ki a au nei, ko te whakawhiwhi atu i te mahi tāpoi hei paerewa paetae ka āwhina i ngā mahi whakatairanga i tō mātau rāngai ki ngā ākonga. He nui noa atu ngā kōwhiringa whai take kei te mahi tāpoi.
Ka taea te toro haere, te ārahi kapa mahi, te noho hei kaiwhakahaere matua. Ā, he rawe ki au te mahi tāpoi nō te mea ka taea te whakapiki i a koe tonu ki roto i te rāngai. Ko te neke o te mahi tāpoi i te taumata ki te paerewa paetae ka whakaatu i te wāhi nui o te mahi tāpoi ki Aotearoa, ka whakanui hoki i te whai mana o te ako mahi tāpoi mā ā mātau ākonga kia whai huarahi whakahirahira rātau ki ngā akoranga kura tuatoru, ā, he tino pai tērā.

English
So Outdoor Education is about exploring our unique environments. Te Taiao. Te Ao Tūroa. The places that make this country pretty different from other places.
And building on their confidence and their skills, but experiencing those while in places like this.
It's about connecting with yourself, with others, and Te Taiao through values such as manaakitanga, tiakitanga and whanaungatanga and really developing those areas. We might be doing Science, Maths, Geography. They don't even realise they're doing it. They're actually out there looking at the make-up of rock or land or measuring tents and how many tents they're going to be able to fit in a certain space for the junior camp that they're running.
So they're also learning a bunch of skills, and some of those are specific skills, ways that we move through the environment. Mountain biking, might be climbing, might be tramping. Some of them are thinking and decision-making skills.
Teamwork, personal resilience, time management, you know, planning, decision-making, any skill that they need to be able to go off into the outdoors and be safe, be able to protect the environment that they're going into and to look after the people that they're with and themselves.
The sorts of things that we have learnt are very useful when we're doing a group project, so we know who's doing what and when they're doing that. Just everything, everything that this subject covers is good for everyone.
So you learn like how to build a shelter. You learn how to survive. You learn how to cook your own food. You learn so much stuff that you can use later on in life.
Outdoor Education opens up a huge range of careers. You've got your standard traditional working in the outdoor industry, working in the adventure tourism industry, guiding, instructing. And then you can go wider into environmental science, marine biology, geography, meteorology. And then you've also got transferable skills that you gain from Outdoor Education that are in your kete for life that transfer to any career you want.
Just taking the team building, taking the resilience, taking the adaptability, taking the decision-making communications to any field, and excelling within that field.
The outdoors were where Māori lived and mātauranga Māori was just a way of life.
And I think we can learn a lot from the Māori way of being. Tikanga, kaitiakitanga in protecting place.
Te Ao Māori and mātauranga Māori will be incorporated into Outdoor Education by really focusing on connecting to the places we visit. What are the pūrākau? What are the pakiwaitara? What is the history of this place? Who was here before me? Who connects to this land?
Most Outdoor Education teachers already incorporate that into what they're doing and so we're just really pushing for that to be embraced and growing on that bit by bit.
I think it's really exciting. I think there's so much we can bring in to this and add value to the subject.
