Measles – Impact on NZQA Exams
November 2, 2025

Important information for students regarding their upcoming NCEA exams:
All students are expected to sit their NCEA exams unless they have been specifically told not to attend by the school or by Health NZ.
Please note that choosing to stay home voluntarily (for example, to avoid potential exposure) is NOT grounds for a Derived Grade.
Health New Zealand, in consultation with the school, will decide if a student is not permitted to attend school or exams because they may have measles.
If you have measles and cannot attend an NZQA examination, please contact Ms Lendrum as soon as possible: l.lendrum@wc.school.nz.
