    Hopes changes to the NCEA schedule will set students' minds at ease

    Hopes changes to the NCEA schedule will set students' minds at ease


    Education Minister Chris Hipkins says NCEA and scholarship exams are being moved back to November 16 - instead of November 6.

    Students submitting art or design portfolios will also get an extra two weeks.

    Secondary school principals association president, Deidre Shea, says this is a good step to lift the pressure off students.

    She says students will be relieved to know they have more time to work on practical projects.
