New Zealand schools deal with a wide range of subjects. Primary schools still stress the basics, but often through interesting projects to engage the children's interests. Secondary schools, especially the larger ones, have quite diverse course offerings. Have a look here to see how different subjects are being taught. The academic results achieved are a key measure of the students's performance and the school program. This is the first statistic that many look at in assessing a school. This is a topic not commonly touhed on in the children's writing, but commonly addresed by the head masters and principals in the annual reports. Some caution needs to be used in coparing the effectiveness of the different schools. The school progam is obviously critical, but it is not the only factor affecting the academic results achieved.

This normlly involves teachers, community volunteers, and older students. The program is a important aid to those students that are making an effort in their studies and need a little extra help.

School publications commonly show a heavy emphasis on sports. We see fewer details about academics. This varies from school to school. Perhaps academics is more difficult to report. Perhaps because most sports are team sports and many students are interested in sports that so much attention is given to it. Of course while sports are important, it is academics that in the long run will affect a studen's future. The publications do provide interesting information on the academic achievements of the students.
