NZQA Deputy Chief Executive Assessment, Jann Marshall extends her best wishes to all students ahead of NCEA and New Zealand Scholarship exams, which start tomorrow morning.
“I encourage all students to give it your best effort. These exams are the last step before you can enjoy a well-deserved summer break,” says Jann Marshall.
“I congratulate students for their hard work and dedication through the year and encourage them to seek support if they feel overwhelmed by the pressure.
While it’s important to stay focused on your studies, remember to take breaks for exercise, rest, and relaxation,” Jann Marshall adds.
Exams end on the morning of Friday 29 November 2024, with around 144,500 students participating in 121 NCEA and New Zealand Scholarship exam sessions.
“More than 97,000 students are entered to sit some NCEA or NZ Scholarship exams online,” Jann Marshall says.
