Otamatea High School >> Curriculum >> Correspondence Courses

It is possible to study some courses by correspondence. In particular, if they have been taught at the junior level and there are insufficient numbers, or staffing, to offer them to the senior school, then the Correspondence School may supply them for Otamatea High School students.

The school is also entitled to offer a subject to broaden the school curriculum. It needs to be realised that the Correspondence School decides who they will enrol using their own criteria. Therefore, a place is not guaranteed.

It should also be stressed that it is more difficult to study by correspondence. Only students with well developed work habits and a specific need should consider applying for approval to do these courses.

Potential correspondence students must have their course approved by the Deputy Principal. Parents are expected to sign a contract to help monitor students' progress.
