All derived grade examinations take place at Te Kura Tuarua, our senior campus at 700 Selwyn Road (access from Eileen Way).
Watch our reel to learn the key locations for your exams.
Please note that it is compulsory to attend your exams.
Learners need to check the timetable carefully, as some subjects which are fully internal have also been allocated an 'exam time'. Learners are required to come in and work on their internal assessment at that time.

Study leave
During this period (Friday 11 September to Friday 18 September 2026), all senior learners will be on ‘study leave’ and timetabled classes will not be running. Learners are required onsite for their exam; outside of their exams, they may study from home.
Studying at home between exams is essential to ensure learners are well prepared for their examinations.
During the study leave period, learners should not be on school grounds unless they are sitting an exam.
