NCEA exams begin

From First Up, 5:47 am on 7 November 2022

For the first time in three years, year 11 to 13 students will undergo NCEA exams in -- relatively -- normal circumstances from today. Back in 2020 NCEA was delayed by 10 days with more than half of students not showing up. And last year saw students in much of the North Island sitting exams under lockdown. Today, students sit exams for a number of subjects including Physics, Business Studies, Te Reo, Media Studies and Calculus. Nathan Rarere asked the principal of Auckland's Onehunga High School, Deidre O'Shea if exams conditions this year are pretty much back to normal.
