A Broad Balanced Curriculum

Students at Rosehill College enjoy a broad, balanced and challenging curriculum, which is designed to equip them with the knowledge and skills to cope with the demands of the 21st century. Students study in all of the Essential Learning Areas of the National Curriculum. In Years 9, Year 10 and Year 11, we strongly recommend continued breadth.

 

In Year 9…

Students will be required to study English, Mathematics, Science, Social Science, Health/Physical Education, Technology, the Arts (two of Visual Art, Drama, Music or Dance) and an international language. A comprehensive course is available for those who wish to study Te Reo Maori.

In Year 10…

The courses offered are much the same as in Year 9, but choices within Arts, Enterprise Studies,Technology and Languages need to be made.

In Year 11…

Students will study towards the National Certificate of Educational Achievement and will be required to study a course in English, Mathematics and Science. In addition students may choose three other full-year courses selected from the Social Sciences, the Arts, Technology, Business Education, Physical Education/Health or Language curricula.

In Year 12…

Students must study English and five other courses. We offer a wide range of academic & vocational courses for students to choose from. All courses lead towards NCEA or another National Certificate. It is possible for some students in Year 12 to engage in multi-level study.

In Years 13 and 14…

Students must select at least five courses. As in Year 12, we offer a wide range of academic and vocational courses for students to choose from. All courses lead to NCEA and/or other National Certificates, as well as providing pathways to tertiary education. It is also possible for students at this level to study for the New Zealand Scholarship examinations. Some students also engage in multi-level study in Years 13 and 14.
