Level 3 Civics (CIV303)

CIV303
Course Description

Teacher in Charge: Ms K. Baird.

The Level Three Civic is aimed at those students who may struggle with main stream subjects and enjoy a more real world, practical focus.  Students will complete Unit Standards and are able to gain 18 credits towards their Level Three qualification. 

Students in this course will investigate the Law, how it is made, how it is enforced, and how it impacts on peoples lives, rights and responsibilities as workers and young people, how we vote and take part in the community as active citizens, social action, career planning, financial literacy, and how societies works within NZ and overseas.

This course is the next step for students who have taken Sustainable Societies and Futures (SUS) in Year 12.

This course is designed to be taken alongside COM303, PAT303, and Tourism to give students the skills they need to succeed in the workforce when they leave school.

All units of work are internally assessed and contribute credits towards NCEA Level 3.

Level Three Civics is not an approved subject for University Entrance as the assessments are Unit Standards.
