NCEA 2007
Changes to standards
Please check the version of the standard students are to be assessed against. Check the date on the standard to ensure you are using the current version of the standard and you are familiar with any modifications that have been made.

Assessment Specifications
The assessment specifications for the external standards have been posted on the NZQA NCEA website.
These need to be checked carefully. Changes have been made, particularly to standards related to the use of geographic skills and ideas.

Assesment Activities for internally assessed standards
Check that the assessment activities you plan to use match the current version of the standard. When selecting activities from the TKI website, choose ones with a recent revision date. These are not moderated activities, so they need to be checked with care. They should be appropriately modified to meet the teaching and learning focus of your school.

National Assessors/Moderators reports
These are not usually posted on the NZQA website before April. Special note should be made of the comments and recommendations in the reports related to external assessments.
