Qualification Endorsements
Merit and Excellence Certificate Endorsements recognise high levels of attainment. Endorsements are especially important for Year 13 students as their Merit and Excellence grades ensure a strong Ranked Score for university entry. Our high rates of Endorsement at Level 3 mean entry into very competitive degree courses for so many of our students.
Scholarship results that reward critical thinking and a depth of knowledge
New Zealand Scholarship assessments enable candidates to be assessed against challenging standards and are demanding for the most able candidates in each subject. Scholarship candidates are expected to demonstrate high-level critical thinking, abstraction and generalisation, and to integrate, synthesise and apply knowledge, skills, nderstanding and ideas to complex situations. New Zealand Scholarship provides recognition and monetary reward to top students in their last year of schooling.
In 2021 our students gained a total of 71 Scholarships including nine awarded at outstanding level. These scholarships were spread across 20 subjects showing a depth of achievement at the highest level across a broad range of curriculum areas.
