教育部长克里斯·希普金斯今天说,国家高中证书和新西兰奖学金考试将继续进行,包括在已经实施警戒级别3的地区。 

克里斯·希普金斯说:”新西兰资格管理局、教育部和卫生部一直在共同努力,确保考试能够以安全的方式进行管理,因此学生有机会展示他们学到的东西。在第 4 学期 COVID-19 中断的地区 – 当学生通常准备考试时,教育基金会已确认这些学生将有资格获得意外事件等级,并承认他们所做的工作。虽然学生将尽可能参加考试,但这个长期建立的意外事件评分过程将更大规模地反映学生在考试中出勤或表现受到疾病或伤害影响的任何一年会发生什么情况。

这些地区的学生如果因特定的 COVID-19 中断而无法参加考试,他们将获得意外事件等级。如果他们参加考试,他们将获得更好的考试成绩或意外事件等级。意外事件等级基于教师在一年中收集的证据,并经过质量保证过程,以确保它们与评估的标准相关。教育基金会将与学校合作制定符合公共卫生指导的措施,以保护考场的学生和教职员工。

当然,社交距离是考试条件的正常部分。虽然 COVID-19 打乱了课堂教学,但学生继续努力学习,应该有机会安全地展示他们学到的东西。今天的决定提供了确定性,同时确保那些在特殊况下不能发挥出最佳水平的人得到认可”。

NCEA and NZ Scholarship Exams to proceed
 
NCEA and New Zealand Scholarship exams will proceed, including in areas where Alert Level 3 has been in place, Education Minister Chris Hipkins said today.
 
“The New Zealand Qualifications Authority, Ministry of Education and Ministry of Health have been working together to ensure exams can be managed in a safe way, so students have the opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned,” Chris Hipkins said.
 
“In regions experiencing COVID-19 disruption in Term 4 – when students are normally preparing for exams – NZQA has confirmed these students will be eligible for an ‘Unexpected Event Grade’, recognising the work they have done.
 
“While students will be expected to attend exams where possible, this long-established Unexpected Event Grade process will reflect – at a larger scale – what happens in any year when a student’s attendance or performance in exams is affected by an illness or injury.
 
“Students in these regions who cannot attend an exam because of a specific COVID-19 disruption will receive their Unexpected Event Grade. Where they do attend the exam, they will receive the better of their exam grade or their Unexpected Event Grade.
 
“Unexpected Event Grades are based on evidence gathered by teachers during the year, and undergo a quality assurance process to make sure they relate to the standard being assessed.
 
“NZQA will work with schools on measures that align with public health guidance to protect students and staff in exam rooms. Social distancing is, of course, a normal part of exam conditions.
 
“While classroom teaching and learning was disrupted by COVID-19, students have continued to work hard, and deserve the opportunity to safely demonstrate what they have learned. Today’s decision provides certainty, while ensuring those who are not able to perform at their best will have their specific circumstances recognised,” Chris Hipkins said.
