General Overview
The diagram shows that students entering Year 11 Mathematics and Statistics are typically learning across Levels Five and Six of the New Zealand Curriculum (NZC) in a variety of topics.
To gain credits from an assessment, a student needs to be achieving at NZC Level Six in that topic. To gain the NCEA Level 1 Certificate, a total of at least 80 credits is needed, across all subjects. |
Numeracy for NCEA Level 1
Numeracy is the bridge between mathematics and daily life. It is the knowledge and skills needed to apply basic mathematics to everyday learning, family and financial matters, work and community tasks, social and leisure activities. To achieve the NCEA Level 1 Certificate, a student must have 10 Numeracy credits. Several other subjects offer a few numeracy credits, but this course gives students an opportunity to achieve up to 26 numeracy credits. These credits are important for building the foundation for continuing with Mathematics and Statistics at NCEA Level 2 and beyond.

Success in Mathematics and Statistics
Good attendance is a key factor in making progress as each lesson builds on the learning from previous lessons.
Homework is an opportunity to review recent work and to practice new skills, at an appropriate level for each student. Its purpose is to help the brain store new learning in its long-term memory. Developing a good long-term memory in Mathematics and Statistics enables us to be successful problem-solvers in the real world.
