Curriculum

Massey High School’s curriculum is based on the principles of the New Zealand curriculum framework and describes the elements which are fundamental to teaching and learning. We believe in the notion of a ‘seamless’ curriculum, where students have access to outside agencies, such as polytechnics, industries and universities, is incorporated into our model.
We believe this model, used in conjunction with effective teaching practices, will develop learners who will demonstrate a high level of competence as well as the ability to deal with complexity and change.
