Enrolment Categories, Gateways and Entry Criteria

Enrolment Category Gateway Entry Criteria
Access Young adult Student is 16 years of age or over and is not attending a school full-time.

Students enrolled under this gateway may remain enrolled up to and including the end of the school year in which the student turns 19 years of age. |
| Access | Adult | Adult students may be enrolled for an administration fee (excluding students enrolled by the Department of Corrections).

An adult, for the purposes of enrolment at Te Kura, is:

(a) turning 20 years of age or older during the year of enrolment; and

(b) not attending a school full-time.

The primary purpose of enabling adult students to enrol in secondary schooling at Te Kura is to provide foundation skills or "second chance" education. That is, individuals are afforded the opportunity to gain NCEA qualifications that they did not gain when they first attended secondary school as a regular student.

The course of study in which the adult student is enrolled must assist the student to reach the following minimum goals:

  • an NZQA qualification
  • NCEA Level 1.

Students enrolled under this gateway may remain enrolled until all assessments for the courses for which they are enrolled are complete or until the end of the calendar year in which they were enrolled, whichever is the sooner. |
