New Zealand's secondary school scholarship results are out

NZQA says more than 2400 students have achieved one or more pass, across 37 subjects.

Assessment Deputy Chief Executive, Jann Marshall, says the exams challenge students to demonstrate advanced critical thinking, abstraction, and generalisation skills.

Recipients get financial support for full-time tertiary education or training in New Zealand.

Auckland's Westlake Boys High School says its students have scored a record 312 scholarships.
