What special assessment conditions are#
Special assessment conditions give students with particular learning needs access to the conditions they need to help them complete formal assessments.
The NCEA website has more information about the range of special assessment conditions.
Literacy and Numeracy Assessment Information – NCEA
The New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NZQA) is responsible for making sure special assessment conditions are granted appropriately. To make sure assistive technology use is appropriate in formal school assessments such as NCEA, your school must apply for a student to have special assessment conditions.
Apply for special assessment conditions#
Your school must apply directly to NZQA on behalf of students. You will need to do this each year before the start of any assessments for them to be able to use assistive technology for those assessments.
