Gateway

We are recognised as a best practice model for our successful implementation of this programme, funded by the Tertiary Education Commission as an initiative to build a highly skilled and adaptable work force.

This provides structured work-place learning opportunities for senior students, where they are trained by the employer and gain Unit Standards that become part of their NZQA Record of Learning.  Year 12 and 13 students who take part go out to work one day a week during Terms 1, 2 and 3 to work places in their career field of interest.
