Learning Recognition Credits (LRCs)

These are the LRCs for schools outside of Auckland.

For every five credits a student earns, they get one extra LRC.
Students at NCEA Level 1 are eligible for up to eight additional credits.
Students at NCEA Levels 2 or 3 are eligible for up to six additional credits.
The LRCs will only appear (if needed) when results are issued by NZQA in 2022.

Summary

Level 2 students; if they get 74 credits, they will get Level 2 (this assumes they have carried 20 credits forward from Level 1)
Level 3 students; if they get 74 credits, they will get Level 3 (this assumes they have carried 20 credits forward from Level 2)

NOTE: LRCs are only awarded for credits gained in 2021. This could affect the above credit totals required.
