SLR NCEA L2 LIFE SKILLS assessment packages
NEW VERSIONS!
NZQA have released the latest updates for the 'work and study skills' and 'self-management' subdomains and we are excited to offer them to you (financial capability was updated in 2022)! Remember we offer schools a FREE version upgrade when they purchase a NCEA L1 or L2 package, but if you have already had your free upgrade, it is only $50 fee per package to update your versions for another 3-4 years (or until the next version is released). Just email us to find out if you qualify for a free update for any of your previously purchased packages.

What are SLR NCEA L2 life skills?
These practical and purposeful SUPPORTING LEARNING L2 assessment packages follow on from the L1 life skills themes. They offer pathways for students needing options to mainstream subjects and packages that blend work, social, thinking and problem solving skills. These packages focus on important life skills from the NZQA Core Generic domain. Like the L1 life skills, these skills & knowledge areas link together under the financial capability, work and study skills and self management themes using easy-to-follow learning booklets with clear pathways onto further learning or employment.
These packages are open to any student to build pathways.
