Year 9
Year 9 students study five compulsory courses (English, Health & Physical Education, Mathematics, Science and Social Sciences) and six semester (half year) option courses (see individual course details), with the exception of Chinese, French, Japanese and Te Reo Māori which are full year courses. These count as two half year options.
It is important to study a wide range of option courses to enable pathways into Year 10 courses and beyond (see Course Planning Chart).
Students will sit an entrance test at Lincoln High School (times to be advised). The results along with other data will be analysed when placing students in classes.
