The Government's proposing to entirely phase out NCEA within five years - saying New Zealand needs a schooling system that sets students up for success.

It wants to scrap NCEA over the next five years, in favour of a literacy and numeracy test in year 11 - and certificates the next two years.

Education Minister Erica Stanford says it's worth creating something New Zealand can stand behind, rather than leaning on systems like the Cambridge Exams.
