新西蘭全國性媒體RNZ根據(jù)新西蘭教育部教育質(zhì)量管理委員會公布信息,對新西蘭私立學校New Zealand National College(簡稱NZNC)教育欺詐問題進行了跟蹤報道。下面可以在查看詳細內(nèi)容。
該學校因持續(xù)存在的教育質(zhì)量問題于上月被取消了了商業(yè)文憑課程后,大約有400多人被迫轉(zhuǎn)到另一家新學校學習。NZQA在轉(zhuǎn)學前對這些學生的入學英語考試成績進行復查,發(fā)現(xiàn)其中140人成績無法達標。NZQA調(diào)查官,教育質(zhì)量管理局副局長格蘭特、科林庫姆博士說,剩下學生們的英語成績和在已經(jīng)取得的學分將會被復查,并對他們的工作進行重新評估,但至少有35%的人似乎沒有資格繼續(xù)他們的學業(yè),剩下的學生已經(jīng)被轉(zhuǎn)到新的學校,或有機會提供額外的證據(jù)來證實他們的入學資格。

一位資深留學專家表示,由于該學校長久以來刻意以與新西蘭公立學校相似的名字-新西蘭國家學業(yè)在進行招生宣傳,此次事件有可能會對新西蘭教育整體形象有不良影響。
NZNC students fail English test after course closes
More than 140 foreign students are ineligible to continue their studies after they failed an English test and a double-check of their academic achievement, the Qualifications Authority (NZQA) says。
The students were among more than 400 who were being transferred to a new institution after the New Zealand National College halted its business diploma courses last month because of ongoing quality problems。
Before the transfer could take place, the students‘ English was tested and the credits they have already been awarded at the college were double-checked。
NZQA deputy chief executive quality assurance Grant Klinkum said the students would learn the outcome of the test and the reassessment of their work this week, but at least 35 percent appeared to be ineligible to continue their studies。
He said the remaining students had been offered a place at the new education provider or were being given the opportunity to provide additional evidence to confirm their eligibility for enrolment。
New Zealand National College (NZNC) stopped offering four business courses at levels 5 and 6 last month after NZQA found evidence of plagiarism and poor marking。
Dr Klinkum said NZQA was still looking at the quality of New Zealand National College‘s other programmes to identify if further action was warranted。
Those courses included preparation for university study, English language, and a Level 7 business diploma。
“As this process is still underway we are unable to advise of the outcome,” he said。
