Pass the NCEA Co-requisite: Reading, Writing & Numeracy

To be awarded NCEA at any level, you must first achieve the literacy and numeracy co-requisite — the Reading, Writing and Numeracy CAAs. Students sit them each May and September, and many need more than one attempt. This app is built for one job: getting you to Achieved in all three.

WHAT'S INSIDE
- 3,000+ NZ-specific practice questions written for the co-requisite standards
- Full mock tests that mirror the real on-screen CAA format
- AI-marked writing practice with clear feedback on every judgement
- Hints, step-by-step explanations and a built-in calculator where permitted
- A readiness score for each standard, so you know when you're set to sit

READING (US32403)
Original New Zealand passages with the question styles the real assessment uses: main ideas, finding information, inference, vocabulary and language features, purpose and audience.

WRITING (US32405)
This is where most students trip — and where the app works hardest. Draft your response (type it, or dictate and edit the transcript), then get instant AI marking against a co-requisite-style rubric: what you did well, what held you back, and the evidence behind every judgement. Edit and resubmit to watch your writing move toward Achieved. Plus focused drills on spelling, punctuation, grammar and sentence structure.

NUMERACY (US32406)
1,600+ questions across every strand: number and calculation, percentages, fractions and ratio (GST included), measurement, space and shape, data and graphs, probability — plus explain-your-reasoning practice for written responses. Calculator allowed, just like the real assessment.

MOCK TESTS THAT FEEL REAL
On-screen and untimed with pacing guidance, Achieved / Not Achieved outcomes, and a breakdown of exactly which skills to fix before your next attempt.

WHO IT'S FOR
- Year 10 students sitting the CAAs for the first time
- Year 11–13 students who still need the co-requisite to be awarded NCEA
- Resitters preparing for the next assessment window
- Parents who want a clear view of readiness, not guesswork

Whether your school calls them the co-requisites, corequisites, the CAAs, or just lit and num the requirement is the same. Pass all three once, and it counts towards NCEA Level 1, 2 and 3.

Study anywhere, at your own pace, and walk into the assessment window knowing you're ready.
