Special assessment conditions

Students can also apply for special assessment conditions if they can meet certain NZQA criteria. Students who may qualify for NZQA-approved assistance are identified at school and should have documentation submitted to support their case by the end of Year 10. Such assistance can take the form of a person to read or write assessments, access to separate accommodation, allocation of extra time, and the use of a computer and different-sized fonts for exam papers. Students entering MAC for the first time at Years 11, 12 or 13 must provide us with documentation from their previous school to support such an application.
