Common Questions, Answered

Which of History, Geography or Economics should my child take?+
We help students try the thinking each one demands before they commit. They are genuinely different subjects, and the right answer depends on the student.
Is essay writing the main skill?+
It is the main assessed skill, yes. Level 1 humanities standards reward a clear argument supported by specific evidence, and that is what we build.
Does this count toward NCEA?+
No - Years 9 and 10 are school-assessed. It is the preparation year for Level 1 humanities.
