As last year, students and whānau will receive a weekly email notification whenever an Achievement Standard and/or Unit Standard has been published. 

Official NCEA Results
When an Achievement or Unit Standard result is published, it is available to view immediately. Please review these NCEA Internal Assessment grades carefully, as these are the official records that will be submitted to NZQA.

NEW for 2026 you will now also receive in the same email format when a Progress Checkpoint has been published. Both of these updates are designed to provide clear, regular transparency on academic progress throughout the year.

Understanding Progress Checkpoints

Checkpoints are used across every subject to help students, teachers, and whānau track progress toward the specific standard currently being worked on.

• The Format: Each checkpoint is framed as a simple question to show whether a student has reached a specific milestone (Yes/Met or No/Not Met).
• Action Required: If a checkpoint is marked No/Not Met, a short explanation will be provided. In these instances, the student should discuss the necessary next steps with their teacher to get back on track.
• Frequency: These are updated only as and when applicable to the coursework, so they will not appear for every subject every week.

Queries & Support

Should you have any questions regarding specific results or checkpoint comments, please contact the subject teacher in the first instance for further clarification.
