NCEA Level 3 English Visual

Course Description

Teacher in Charge: Mrs J. Tait.


Ko te reo te tuakiri

Ko te reo tōku ahurei

Ko te reo te ora


Language is my identity 

Language is my uniqueness

Language is my life


Our 13 English Visual course provides opportunities for ākonga to use literature and language to explore self, society and the wider world.  Whanaungatanga, kaitiakitanga, manaakitanga are at the heart of our subject. This course is tailored to suit the needs of students who find English challenging yet want or need a Level 3 English course for further education.  It is taught using film and television as the anchor texts and follows on from the 12 Foundation English course. 


Ākonga will learn that:

  • Language and identity are inextricable.

  • Making and creating meaning are processes that occur when we interpret and when we produce text.

  • Reading is a source of enjoyment and enrichment.

NOTE: Students who do not gain at least 12 credits in Level 2 English (12ENG or 12ENF), are not eligible for this course. Their options are to choose another subject or repeat the Level 2 English course. 


Recommended Prior Learning

At least 14 credits in Level 2 English, otherwise HOD approval is required.

Disclaimer

Rosmini College's timetable is student-driven and a new timetable is generated each year based on student subject selection. Unfortunately, while we do our best to avoid them, timetabling clashes may still occur and a few students may be required to choose an alternative subject option.

The 2025 timetable, including the number of classes in each subject and staffing allocations, is created based on student selections made in 2024. Because of this, changing subjects at the beginning of 2025 may not be possible. Please, make your subject choices carefully.
