Education Minister Erica Stanford RNZ / Nick Monro
The Education Minister is set to reveal the education system that will replace NCEA in secondary schools.
The announcement is confirmation of a government proposal to abolish all levels of NCEA, as it looks to replcae it with a new three tier qualification system.
Minister Erica Stanford says the consultation process is now underway for the next six weeks so the public can have their say.
It’s the latest in a raft of changes that have shaken up the education system and curriculum.
Stanford is making an announcement about 9.15am on Thursday.
It’s expected she’ll outline more details about the changes.
We’ll be livestreaming the announcement at this top of this page.
