Assessment and Certification Rules and Procedures for Secondary Schools - 2008

5.2 Moderation Requirements

  1. For all NQF qualifications The New Zealand Qualifications Authority requires schools to be accredited and to engage in external moderation.

  2. Managing National Assessment (MNA) checks and reports evaluate schools' processes and systems to ensure that internal assessment decisions and systems remain effective.

  3. If the outcomes of external moderation and/or the Managing National Assessment Report reveal that there is no evidence of a strategy to improve a school's assessment systems, the school's accreditation status may be reviewed and/or an investigation may be conducted under terms which parallel those of Breaches of the Rules-External Assessment.
