International Students Course Options

During the orientation process, a teacher will help International Students select their courses to complete their timetable. Students should be clear if they want to enter for the NZ Qualification NCEA - National Certificate in Educational Assessment. This is available to students in Year 11, 12 or 13 who are enrolling for a full year or more. Students should also be clear if there are subjects that their home school require them to take while studying abroad. Orewa College can offer some subjects that are not offered in regular classroom options, via Online classes.
