The New Zealand Curriculum

As you may be aware, the  Ministry of Education has developed The New Zealand Curriculum which will replace the current curriculum from 2010.  Initially this will have the greatest impact for Years 9 and 10.  Napier Girls' High School staff have been working for the past few years preparing for the implementation of the New Zealand Curriculum.  The vision of the New Zealand Curriculum states that ‘Young People will be confident, connected, actively involved, lifelong learners.  To develop students to meet this vision, Napier Girls' High School is working on Values, Key Competencies, Principles and Achievement Objectives in Learning Areas.

If you would like more information on the New Zealand Curriculum please visit the Ministry of Education website www.minedu.govt.nz Under Education Sectors go to Primary and Secondary Educators and then Curriculum & NCEA.
