NCEA Internal Assessment Extension Procedures

While it is essential that you are in School, completing class work and internal assessments, if at all possible, if you are unwell, the School would prefer that you are at home recovering and not at School potentially infecting others.

If you have missed or will miss an internal assessment deadline or in-class assessment and you have a legitimate reason for being absent, you may be eligible for an extension.

You can collect an application form for an extension to a deadline on an internal assessment from Student Reception. You must do so on the day you return to School, and be ready to provide a medical certificate as supporting evidence for your application.

If you missed internal assessments in class, or missed deadlines, last week due to Summer Tournament Week, you do not need to complete the extension application form, but you should discuss catch-up arrangements with your teacher as soon as possible.
