Excellent NCEA Results!

January 31, 2014 at 2:52 PM

We are really pleased with the results from our 2013 senior students in their end of year external examinations. We reported earlier on the International Baccalaureate Diploma results and have been waiting to verify the NCEA results. At this point, the final tally is still provisional but we are pleased to report on our highest achievers.

The majority of students at Saint Kentigern College sit the NCEA and we are extremely proud that all our measurable indicators at all 3 Levels of the qualification have shown improvement from the year before. Of greatest note is the continued rise in the number of students who have strived for and attained either a Merit or Excellence Endorsement. The majority of our students can be justifiably proud of their achievements. 91% of our NCEA students gained University Entrance.

NCEA LEVEL 1

At Level 1 (Year 11) 97% of all the students gained their certificates with 29% gaining their certificates with an Excellence Endorsement and a further 53% gaining a Merit Endorsement. Forty eight students have met the criteria for gaining either Academic Colours or Honours.
