Seniors

In Year 12 and 13:

Whangārei Girls' High School requires every student to have their own chromebook or laptop. (No cellphones are to be used during learning times). If there is difficulty providing a device for your student please talk to your student's Dean or any member of the Senior Leadership Team.

All Year 12 students will select 6 courses.  

All Year 13 students will select 5 courses. A study line will be added to your timetable.

Students may take a multi-level course - which can include subjects from any level. This must be fully discussed with your subject teachers.

In Year 12 it is advisable to study a language rich course as part of your programme. This enables students to gain the University Entrance (UE) Literacy requirements - five Level 2 Reading and Writing credits. Courses which provide 5 Reading and 5 Writing credits are Classics, English, History and Te Reo Māori. Most students gain these from Level 2 English. (Level 2 English is also a requirement into many trades, the defence forces and tertiary training.)

It is important that students check out any tertiary course requirements very carefully and ensure their course of study meets the requirements for the qualification, training or employment they are aiming to enter.

We encourage all students and whānau to explore post secondary school. Our careers department is available for support.

Courses that are University approved are indicated by  *. If you are not sure what you want to do in the future, leave your course selection broad, to ensure flexibility.

If you wish to study a course that you have not taken before, you must speak with your whānau teacher, and the relevant Head of Department to be prepared.
