NCEA in 2022/2023 Public Engagements Pilots Implementation Review of Achievement Standards Timeline

Pilot Schools What has happened so far? Four subject areas have been piloted: 1. English 2. Visual Arts 3. Science 4. Religious studies Tried and tested, exemplars collected: o Learning Matrices o Assessment Matrices o Activities Teaching and Learning Programmes have been created to be shared

Pilot Schools What will happen next? The Ministry of Education seeks willing schools for the 2022 pilot process All L1 subjects will have twenty pilot schools continue the pilot process 2022 Upscaling of new external and internal assessment processes will be tested Collection of further exemplars

Pilot Schools FAQs Frequently Asked Questions: Will all subjects be piloted? All NCEA level 1 subjects will be piloting during 2022, from both the New Zealand Curriculum and Te Marautanga o Aotearoa. Will a pilot school be required to present a full coherent course i.e. all standards of the coherent subject? For the pilot year, schools will need to use all 4 standards in a subject s Assessment Matrix to assess the learning described in the Learning Matrix. How many classes within a school should be signed up for a pilot one class or the whole cohort, or part of the cohort? This is up to each school. When applying to pilot, schools will be asked to provide details of the estimated size of the pilot cohort, and what percentage of the overall cohort will be piloting. Can bespoke, mix n match courses be piloted,e.g. 2 standards from AgHort and two standards from Science? Generally, no. We need to test how the standards work together to assess the learning matrix for each subject. After the pilot year, schools will be able to design courses that use standards from more than one subject. A small number of schools will be invited to develop teaching and learning programmes that use standards from multiple matrices to test this approach. What level of student exemplars is expected tobe submitted in support of the RAS process? For internal assessments, a sample of 8 pieces of student work from each subject cohort will need to be submitted.

Pilot Schools FAQs Frequently Asked Questions: Will program outlines be sought from next year s pilot schools and will these contracts carry remuneration? Pilot schools will be invited to submit proposals for developing full teaching and learning programmes using the new standards. If their proposals are accepted, schools will work with the Ministry to develop a quality, exemplar programme that will be published as a support resource. Schools will be renumerated for this contribution What support is provided for pilot schools, from the MoE, from NZQA, texts, teacher training and support, PLD, release time, website resources etc. A support package is being developed that includes a range of guidance material. NZQA and the Ministry of Education will provide initial and ongoing support to schools, beginning with funding one representative per subject and school to attend planning workshops in Wellington. Ongoing support will include regular online meetings at key points, and direct support from NZQA and the Ministry There is also information on the NCEA website here NCEA Pilots | NCEA (education.govt.nz)

PLD Supporting Pacific Peoples Knowledge The Action Plan for Pacific Education identifies five key shifts and a set of actions that are needed to achieve the vision of transforming outcomes for Pacific learners and families. Link to action plan Tapas is a resource for all teachers of Pacific learners. It is designed to support teachers to become more culturally aware, confident and competent when engaging with Pacific learners and their parents, families and communities. Tapas The Teaching Council of Aotearoa New Zealand have developed a suite of professional learning resources to help you to five life to Tapas in your setting. Teaching Council resources

PLD Subject-specific Support For more subject-specific support, our Learning Area Leads have been working with subject associations to help them understand what the changes mean for your subject. They will be sharing PLD opportunities through their workshops, newsletters, and conferences. We will also be sharing resources developed during the pilot school process. These will be added to the ncea.education.govt website at end of the mini pilot and pilot years. Subject Associations will be sharing PLD opportunities through their workshops, newsletters and conferences.
