In Years 0–3, teaching builds on early childhood learning by developingE1 foundational oral language, reading, and writing skills through structured literacy approaches. Oral language is a key focus, supporting students to express ideas and understand others. Teachers introduce shared language codes and conventions such as phonics, grammar, punctuation, and text structure, which underpin reading comprehension and written expression. Explicit instruction in letter formation supports fluency and confidence in writing. Through reading, creating, and sharing texts, teachers foster connection, understanding, and a love of language. Students are supported to make connections between texts and their own experiences and begin to explore how texts can be interpreted in different ways. This lays the groundwork for critical analysis and literacy across the curriculum.

The Mathematics and Statistics Learning Area provides students with concepts and tools to investigate, represent, and connect situations, as well as to generalise, explain, and justify their findings. Students learn that Mathematics and Statistics is a creative discipline that sparks curiosity and wonder and that it has been shaped by the contributions of diverse people and cultures over time.

As students progress through the Learning Area, they deepen their understanding of how to use mathematics and statistics accurately, efficiently, and confidently in increasingly complex ways. They are encouraged to engage with important societal issues — such as ethically gathering, interpreting, and communicating data — and to observe and describe similarities, patterns, and trends across natural, technological, and social contexts. 

Years 4–6

In Years 4–6, teaching focuses on students’ use of a variety of representations to model number operations and to solve word problems. They extend their understanding of whole numbers to fractions and decimals, and they visualise, classify, and draw angles using benchmarks to support and justify their classifications. Students apply their knowledge of number operations to reasoning about measurements and to investigating variations in patterns, shapes, probabilities, and data. They begin to work with exponents, can tell the time, and convert between units of time.

In Years 7 and 8, teaching focuses on students’ use of logic and reasoning to identify, clarify, and solve problems, make connections between mathematical and statistical concepts, and investigate patterns and variation. They use appropriate conventions, vocabulary, and algebraic notation to clearly explain solutions and justify their approaches to solving problems. Students select, use, and adapt representations to visualise and extend their reasoning (e.g. number lines to represent integers, and equations to represent linear patterns). They make generalisations, identify and calculate unknown quantities (e.g. the size of angles), and use data visualisations to evaluate claims and make conjectures. They begin to explore irrational numbers and to operate fluently with integers.

The Science learning area equips students with disciplinary knowledge and practices to understand, explain, and explore the physical and biological world. Across the key strands of physical sciences and biological sciences, students are taught foundational scientific knowledge that underpins their engagement with scientific practices. 

Through the study of Science, students learn how to observe systematically, ask testable questions, design investigations, analyse data, and communicate findings using scientific conventions. They engage with science as a dynamic, evidence-based discipline shaped by empirical inquiry, peer critique, and social and cultural contexts. 

In Years 9–10, teachers guide students to apply scientific knowledge and practices to increasingly abstract and interdisciplinary contexts. Students engage in independent scientific inquiry and apply model-based thinking to explain relationships. Students use evidence to critique claims, model systems, explain interactions across strands, apply algebraic reasoning, evaluate data quality, and construct scientific arguments. Teachers provide opportunities for students to represent chemical reactions using equations, calculate energy efficiency, and analyse motion using Newton’s laws and graphical data. Teachers support students to interpret genetic and environmental influences on traits, model immune responses, and evaluate human impacts on ecosystems using scientific and environmental data.

The Science learning area prepares students with the knowledge, practices, and capabilities to access related curriculum subjects for Years 11–13, including Biology, Chemistry, Earth and Space Science, Physics, Agricultural and Horticultural Science, and Primary Industries.

Our Year 10 Science course is designed to deepen students’ understanding of the natural world and prepare them for senior secondary science. Following the NZ Curriculum, learners explore key science strands including Living World (biology), Material World (chemistry), Physical World (physics), Earth Systems and Space, and the Nature of Science. Through practical investigations, data analysis, and scientific communication, students study topics such as chemical reactions, energy transfers, motion and forces, genetics and ecosystems, disease and immunity, and climate processes. This course builds confident, critical thinkers who apply evidence to explain real-world phenomena and supports progression into NCEA Level 1 Science.

In Years 9 and 10, teaching focuses on students’ use of proportional reasoning to transform numerical quantities, measurements, and shapes, including right-angled triangles. They begin to generalise their understanding and application of tables, equations, and graphs, including to explore patterns and the connections between different representations. They extend their understanding of area, perimeter, and volume for a variety of 2D shapes, including circles, and 3D shapes, including prisms. They use data visualisations to investigate, represent, and explain patterns, trends, and variation, and they apply their knowledge to situations involving chance.
