Achieving the NCEA co-requisite from 2024

Starting this year, all learners need to achieve the 20-credit co-requisite to be awarded any level of NCEA.

Starting this year, all learners need to achieve the 20-credit co-requisite specific to te reo matatini, pāngarau, literacy and numeracy to be awarded any level of NCEA. 

Credits achieved under the old standards (before 2024) will still count towards the NCEA co-requisite if they were completed entirely (the full set of te reo matatini/literacy and pāngarau/numeracy standards). But from 2024, students must achieve the required 10 credits in te reo matatini/literacy or 10 credits in pāngarau/numeracy from the current list of approved standards. 

Credits achieved towards the NCEA co-requisite before 2024 can only be used during the 2024–2025 transition years if they come from the approved standards list. For example, if a student achieved numeracy credits before 2024 from standards that are in the approved standards list, those credits can be carried forward and contribute towards their NCEA numeracy requirement in 2024. 

Students who achieved some te reo matatini/literacy or pāngarau/numeracy credits under the old standards can use them towards the 60 course credits required for their NCEA qualification. Those credits will also be included in their record of achievement.
