There is a growing belief that NCEA should be abolished and replaced all together.  

The Government is signalling that big changes could be on the cards - including the potential to ditch NCEA level one entirely.  

Auckland Grammar Headmaster Tim O'Connor told Mike Hosking that there should be a simple examination-based system, to give benchmarking across the country. 

He says NZQA would mark everything, so every student knows where they stand.
