Meet Zoë
I did consider the IB, particularly as the Foundation Diploma helped to inform me about how the IB works. Ultimately I chose NCEA Level 2-3 because it offered the opportunity to study Te Reo Māori. My aim is to become fluent in Te Reo.
I’ve always wanted to be a lawyer. I plan to study law at the University of Canterbury and then see where that takes me. I enjoy debating and humanities and I’m fascinated by issues of social science that revolve around law, an interest that was sparked when we studied women and LGBTQ+ rights in Iran in Year 10.
It’s intimidating preparing for national assessments but I know I have the support of my teachers and can speak to them when I need to. I feel well prepared in my studies and I’m confident in learning the material.
