Rangiora High School operates an [[Education in New Zealand#State school enrolment schemes|enrolment scheme]] to help curb roll numbers and prevent overcrowding. The school's home zone, in which students residing are automatically entitled to be enrolled, covers much of the central Waimakariri District and the southern Hurunui District.<ref>{{cite web |url= http://nzschools.tki.org.nz/ |title= eLearning Schools Search |publisher= Te Kete Ipurangi |access-date= 29 November 2013}}. Searching for Rangiora High School, and then selecting "Show Enrolment Zone" will show the home zone.</ref> Students residing outside the zone are sometimes accepted, as roll places allow in accordance with the enrolment scheme order of preference.

At the March 2012 [[Education Review Office]] (ERO) review of the school, the school had 1789 students enrolled, including 44 [[international student]]s. The school roll's gender composition was 49% male and 51% female, and its ethnic composition was 85% [[New Zealand European]] (Pākehā), 10% [[Māori people|Māori]], 3% [[Asian people#New Zealand|Asian]] and 2% other.<ref>{{cite web |url= http://www.ero.govt.nz/content/view/pdf/173972 |title= Rangiora High School Education Review |date= 31 May 2012 |publisher= Education Review Office |access-date= 29 November 2013 |url-status= dead |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20150924003851/http://www.ero.govt.nz/content/view/pdf/173972 |archive-date= 24 September 2015 |df= dmy-all }}</ref>

The school has a [[socio-economic decile]] rating of 9 (step Q), meaning it draws its school community from areas of low to moderately-low socio-economic disadvantage when compared to other New Zealand schools. The current decile came into force in January 2015, after a nationwide review of deciles following the 2013 census. Previously, the school had a decile of 8 (step P).<ref name="decile2015" />


==Curriculum==
==Curriculum==
Rangiora High School has developed a junior curriculum based on the New Zealand Curriculum. In Years 9 and 10 students study Ako, a connected curriculum model which includes English, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, and Health & Physical Education. Year 9 students also select four half-year elective subjects, which must include one Arts subject, one Technology subject and one Language subject (out of [[French language|French]], [[Japanese language|Japanese]], and [[Te Reo Māori]]). Year 10 students also select four half-year electives.

They also select elective subjects, which can include Arts subjects, Technology subjects and Language subjects (out of [[French language|French]], [[Japanese language|Japanese]], and [[Te Reo Māori]]).


In Years 11 to 13, students complete the [[National Certificate of Educational Achievement]] (NCEA), the main secondary school qualification in New Zealand. Levels 1, 2 and 3 of NCEA are usually completed in Years 11, 12 and 13 respectively, although students can choose subjects from different levels depending on their progress through the NCEA level system. In Year 11, students study English, Mathematics, Science or Agricultural Science, and three full-year elective subjects. Students in Year 12 study six full-year elective subjects. Students in Year 13 study five full-year elective subjects, with study for an additional four periods per week. Because the 25-period-per-week school timetable is not evenly divisible into six subject lines, students in Years 11 to 13 spend the last period on Wednesdays either in [[Period (school)#Study period|supervised study]] or sport practice.<ref>{{cite web |url= http://www.rangiorahigh.school.nz/assets/Senior-Curr-Handbook-2014_14022_1.pdf |title= Senior Curriculum Handbook 2014 |publisher= Rangiora High School |access-date= 10 December 2013 |url-status= dead |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20131218122826/http://www.rangiorahigh.school.nz/assets/Senior-Curr-Handbook-2014_14022_1.pdf |archive-date= 18 December 2013 |df= dmy-all }}</ref>

Rangiora High School is a state co-educational secondary school located in Rangiora, New Zealand. Established in 1881 by an act of parliament[6][7] and opened in 1884, the school has a roll of 1640 students from years 9 to 13 (approx. ages 12 to 18) as of August 2024, making it the fifth-biggest school in the South Island.[4]

Enrolment

[edit]

Rangiora High School operates an enrolment scheme to help curb roll numbers and prevent overcrowding. The school's home zone, in which students residing are automatically entitled to be enrolled, covers much of the central Waimakariri District and the southern Hurunui District.[8] Students residing outside the zone are sometimes accepted, as roll places allow in accordance with the enrolment scheme order of preference.

Curriculum

[edit]

Rangiora High School has developed a junior curriculum based on the New Zealand Curriculum. In Years 9 and 10 students study English, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, and Health & Physical Education. They also select elective subjects, which can include Arts subjects, Technology subjects and Language subjects (out of French, Japanese, and Te Reo Māori).

In Years 11 to 13, students complete the National Certificate of Educational Achievement (NCEA), the main secondary school qualification in New Zealand. Levels 1, 2 and 3 of NCEA are usually completed in Years 11, 12 and 13 respectively, although students can choose subjects from different levels depending on their progress through the NCEA level system. In Year 11, students study English, Mathematics and four full-year elective subjects. Students in Year 12 study six full-year elective subjects. Students in Year 13 study five full-year elective subjects, with study for an additional four periods per week.

Rangiora High School has a school farm, which is used to teach land-based studies. Set up in 1910, it started out running stock and growing crops,[9] before being officially opened in November 1930 by Lord Bledisloe, the then Governor-General.[10]

History

[edit]

A School Council was established in 1921 to give pupils a role in school affairs, and a Nursery School in 1938 to provide pupils with practical experience at child care. The school farm was developed in the 1920s during the tenure of Mr. J. E. Strachan as principal, enabling the school to offer a full range of agricultural courses. The farm was originally 130 acres[58] but this has since changed.

A giant redwood tree is in the grounds of the school. It was planted in 1887 to mark Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee and has now grown into a very large tree.[59]
