Return of Externally Assessed Graphics and Technology Materials to Schools

To maintain consistency with examination-based externally assessed subjects, NZQA will now be sending completed assessment schedules for Graphics and Technology directly to candidates in January. Assessment schedules will be returned to candidates along with their marked examination booklets for their other subjects.

The candidate portfolios will be returned to schools from 15 to 19 December 2008. This is a change from previous years when the portfolios and assessment schedules were returned to schools in early February.
