Language Support

The Language Support Department offers a range of programmes to meet the needs of NESB students (students from non-English speaking backgrounds). The main aim is to help students develop English language skills across the four modalities: reading, writing, listening, speaking.

In the senior school programmes focus on developing literacy for tertiary studies.
This includes offering courses towards NCEA at both levels one and two of the curriculum framework.
