Is NCEA better than IB?

It depends on the subjects you want to do and which university and in what country you want to study in. As you probably know every student has to do NCEA level 1. NCEA: It offers a wide range of subjects and is very flexible It is recognised overseas NCEA qualifies you for University Entrance around the world provided you get the required number of credits Most New Zealand students do NCEA • Everyone can enter for NCEA • Students collect credits for assessment completed in each subject area • There is a mix of internal (tests and assignments done in class and external(examinations)assessment • It is completed in Yr 11, 12 and 13 (Level 1, 2 and 3) • The subject range is huge including subjects not offered in IB ‐ Agriculture, Tourism, Wood/Metal, Dance, Drama, Food/Fabric Technology etc. IB: It is an international qualification offered in over 138 countries around the world Over 752,000 students are involved in IB Diploma programmes An IB Diploma will allow you to attend any university in New Zealand and across the globe The qualification is highly regarded world wide The diploma includes New Zealand content whilst also focusing on being internationally minded Students studying for the Diploma take 6 subjects for two years from across the curriculum The Diploma has three additional parts - the theory of knowledge course (TOK), creativity, action and service (CAS) and the extended essay (EE) - all of these parts count towards your Diploma The range of subjects offered is smaller Subjects offered in IB • English • French (for those with experience) Spanish (for beginners), Japanese • Geography, History, Business and Management, Economics • Biology, Chemistry, Physics • Mathematics (three different levels to suit your needs) • Music • Visual Art • Theory of Knowledge (compulsory) • CAS (compulsory) • Extended essay (compulsory) What type of student might choose IB? • A student of average or above average ability • A student with good results in Year 11 • A student who enjoys learning and is self motivated • A student who wants a challenge and an experience beyond just studying 'subjects' • Admission to the IB programme is not automatic - you must complete an application form and have an interview. What type of student might choose NCEA • Someone who wants to take subjects not available in the IB Diploma e.g. agriculture, food/fabrics, tourism, metal/wood, drama, equine • A student who has huge commitments outside of school like a national sporting representative (although this type of student has often been very successful in the IB programme) • A student who needs to work hard on organisation and self motivation • A student who likes the flexibility of the NCEA system he most important message • Think about what type of learner you are • Talk to as many people as possible to get a balanced view of NCEA and the IB Diploma but make sure you also talk to those who have the detailed information (Mr Porter and Mrs Earl) • Carefully choose the pathway most suited to your needs Hope this helps.


What happens if you fail NCEA level 1?

Lets just say. If you achieved 60 credits out of 80. I think you will need to continue to get them next year. In some schools you don't need to repeat a another year but be in a year 12 class but work on some year 11 work

What syllabus NCEA or Cambridge is better for the future of children?

Since NCEA is the national educational framework in New Zealand, it has a vast amount of resources, books and support services. Teachers are highly familiar with NCEA methods of teaching and you will learn everything you need to for the end of year examinations. On the other hand, Cambridge is not the primary model of education in New Zealand. As a result, teachers will be less able to support students and less resources are available for students.
