Year 11 going to Year 12

English and Mathematics are recommended but are not compulsory.

Year 12 students study Level 2 in subjects they meet the prerequisites. Students need to be aware that moving up a level of study is not automatic. Prerequisites must be met to guarantee automatic entry. You will need HOD approval if you did not take a pathway course in Year 11 or gain the required entry grade.

Secondary Tertiary programme (STP2)

This course is designed for boys wishing to enter a vocational pathway at the end of their Year 12 school year.

It aims to give them the skills and confidence to transition from Year 12 into further tertiary study (predominantly a one-year pre-trades level 3 course), gain an apprenticeship, or gain full-time employment.

Students will be given the privilege and responsibility of spending one day per week at Toi Ohomai Institute of Technology to provide them with additional skills within their chosen area of study. 

Select STP2

Gateway (GTW2)

The Gateway programme is designed to strengthen the pathway for senior students to progress from school to the workplace or tertiary study. It provides students with structured workplace learning across various industries and businesses while they continue to study at school.

Students are given the opportunity to test-drive their career choices while gaining real and valuable experience. Gateway gives the students confidence to transition smoothly from school to work or further study. The Gateway programme requires that students complete a minimum of 20 industry-based credits.

Please Note:

Problems arise each year where students select inappropriate options and find after a month or so that they cannot cope. Please ensure that your choice of options matches your ability to achieve in that subject – ask your teachers if you are in doubt!
