The Grading System:

Each subject is of a 'stand alone' nature and there is no scaling in the NZEST examinations. NZEST uses a grading system in which there are 10 grades from A+ down to D.
These grades generate the following points scale:
| A+ |
9
|
| A |
8 |
|
A-

7

| B+ |

| The NZEST grading system |
The examiners, in consultation with the marking panel, recommend the cut-off marks for A+ denoting outstanding work, and C- which is the lowest mark demonstrating any competence. The intervening grades are then allocated and approved by the representatives of the Academic Committee.
Scholarships are then calculated on the total number of points a candidate earns, across a maximum of five examinations: the sum of these points appears in the righthand column of the table opposite.
The grades ensure comparability between subjects, which may have a different examination mean. It should be stressed that the grades are awarded on the basis of performance in a particular examination, regardless of the number of entries a candidate has made.
This system allows a candidate to test their all-round scholarship or to discover their ability in a favoured subject. Clearly, the entries in the NZEST examinations show that there is a demand for both types of entry.
