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.
