How can this booklet help you in your long-term planning?
The aim of this booklet is to help students plan and select their programme of study for the next year and beyond. It is an introductory guide only. Each student needs a programme of study that meets her needs and consultation and advice about the different subjects available should be sought.
Parents and students should discuss subjects and courses with either subject teachers, Heads of Departments, Head of House, Deans, Tutor Group Teachers, the Careers Counsellor and Deputy Principals.
When making choices about subjects and courses, the following points should be kept in mind
:
Ability and interest in an area of learning; How a subject will help and where it will lead to; The desirability of a balanced education
The eight essential learning areas described in the New Zealand Curriculum include English, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, Health and Physical Education, the Arts, Technology and Languages.
Over the last three of these learning areas, Year 9 and 10 students select from a range of option subjects.
