Secondary school students engaging with their teacher in class

Online workshops for some NCEA subjects

Starting on 29 October, we will conduct online workshops for some subjects that were updated following the annual NCEA review and maintenance programme (RAMP).

Starting on 29 October, our NCEA Implementation Facilitators or NIFs (who will soon be known as Curriculum Advisors – Senior Secondary), supported by subject associations, will conduct online workshops for some subjects affected by the NCEA review and maintenance updates.

These workshops will provide teachers with subject-specific support to help in understanding the changes in the updated Achievement Standards and supporting materials for 2025. We are pleased to be able to partner with many of our subject associations to support these updates.

To register for these workshops, please click the link of the particular workshop that you would like to attend from the list below.

These workshops will again be offered in Term 1 2025, if required.

Our regionally based NIFs can also support you to unpack subject Learning Matrices, Subject Learning Outcomes, and Achievement Standards or to help design courses. To access their support, please contact your Ministry of Education regional office.
