听上面的对话，很感兴趣。因为我自己本人也一直是认为Rangitoto的整体表现是比Long Bay要强的，但从未去认真研究过。所以，查了查两校的数据，做了个对比。
首先两校都是NCEA学校，没有IB或剑桥，所以楼主也不用纠结了。如果真的想弄懂区别的话，看看这几篇文章吧：
NCEA体系介绍： http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_6723d3d20100yxh3.html
如何以NCEA成绩进入大学： http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_6723d3d2010151nm.html
如何以剑桥CIE成绩进入新西兰大学：http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_6723d3d2010166nm.html
先来看看两校的NCEA及大学升学率UE（University Entrances）的比较（数据来源：http://www.nzqa.govt.nz/qualific ... do?reportID=8034175） ：
11年级（NCEA LEVEL 1）
Long Bay College 考试人数：366 通过率：83.9%
Rangitoto College 考试人数：589 通过率： 85.6%
12年级（NCEA LEVEL 2）
Long Bay College 考试人数：349 通过率：82.2%
Rangitoto College 考试人数：649 通过率： 91.5%
13年级（University Entrance）大学通过率
Long Bay College 考试人数：266 通过率：60.9%
Rangitoto College 考试人数：592 通过率： 76.2%
从学术表现上看，Rangitoto明显优于Long Bay。
对于Rangti这样的一个大学校，是很难得能有如此好的学术水平的。特别是Rangi的12年级，600多人考试，居然通过率能超过92%，令人吃惊。最重要的一部分是UE，UE的全国平均水平（Decile 8-10学校）为62.7%。Long Bay的UE成绩仅为60.9%，低于全国平均水平。而Rangi的为76.2%高于全国平均水平。作为一个全国最大的学校，不简单。
看完NZQA的实打实的学术数据后，我们来看看ERO的School Report
LongBay College的report见：http://ero.govt.nz/Early-Childho ... -College-07-02-2010
Rangitoto College的report见：http://ero.govt.nz/Early-Childho ... -College-28-10-2010
两校的report都是2010年的，略显outdate。估计在今年他们都要ERO Audit了。
Longbay College和Rangitoto两校同为等级Decile 10的学校，其所处区域都是非常好的。Longbay有1561人，为Rangitoto （2871个学生）一半多点的学生人数。
学生构成：
Long Bay College:
NZ European/Pākehā 57%,
Māori 4%,
other European 30%,
Asian 4%,
Chinese 2%,
Indian 1%, Pacific 1%, other 1%
Rangitoto College:
NZ European/Pākehā 53%
Māori 5%
Chinese 9%
Korean 9%
African 7%
SE Asian 4%
Indian 3%
Japanese 1%
Pacific 1%
other Asian 1%
other 7%
从这里看起来，Rangtitoto的华人比例比Long Bay高不少，但也还好。
看reports的其它部分,
Long Bay College:
"A strong emphasis on academic achievement, together with increased student participation in sport, dance, drama, music and other performance events, has successfully raised the profile of the school in recent years. " “Student achievement has continued to improve since 2006” 加红的部分来看，给我的感觉是：学校以前的表现并不怎样，自2006年来已经有很大提高。
“Analysed NCEA data show that Long Bay College is amongst the top performing state schools. " 这句话可以忽略，因为现在要比较的这两个学校在全国范围而言都属很好的学校。
Areas for improvement是重点要看的部分，这里主要是说ERO觉得学校在哪些方面还需要提高:
”Improving understanding of good teaching practice...Programmes for beginning teachers and teacher induction should reinforce effective teaching practice. “
"Quality management systems should be improved to ensure that changes arising from these reviews are implemented and monitored. "
Students as self-directed learners. "teachers will need to provide feedback that assists students to identify the strengths and gaps in their learning and develop critical reflection and questioning skills. Teachers will also need to use assessment data more effectively to target students' learning needs and to ensure that students are individually making good progress. "
从报告上来看，学校在自我管理上有点松懈。。。不过不知道这3年会不会有所提高就是另一个问题了。
ERO is likely to carry out the next review in three years. 这里很重要，ERO就是说会在3年后，也就是今年就要对学校进行再次AUDIT。
Rangitoto College:
"Challenging academic courses are complemented by an extensive co-curricular programme. Students benefit from teachers’ expertise and commitment. " 这句话表现了学校对学生在学术上要求很高，因为提供的课程是challenging academic courses。
Students appreciate the well resourced learning environment and the many opportunities that the school provides them to develop leadership skills. 学校的设施很不错。
”Classroom teaching is purposeful and focused, and students enjoy positive relationships with teachers and with one another. “ 师生关系融洽，课堂纪律好。
”ERO is likely to carry out the next review within four to five years.“ ERO对学校非常满意，所给的4-5年后才做的AUDIT已经是最长期限了。这点比Long Bay College要强。
看看别的方面：
The coeducational college is highly regarded by its community and parents are actively involved in the school’s well organised activities and events. Rangitoto在社区的声望很高。
The board and senior managers have conducted in-depth self review, including reviews of selected learning areas, pastoral care and discipline procedures, planning, reporting, and health and safety systems. 学校管理层在自我管理方面做得非常好。
Areas of strength
Collaborative management. Members of the senior management team work collaboratively, while undertaking clear individual responsibilities.
Student achievement. Student achievement in the senior school is monitored closely and areas for improvement are identified and targeted.
Student engagement and progress. Teacher-student relationships are positive and teachers’ high expectations of students support their engagement in learning.
Areas for development
Student engagement in learning. ERO affirms school management plans for making better use of student achievement data at Years 9 and 10. 9-10年级的学生的表现看来不如高年级的。
好了。这么多的数据及报告分析，估计楼主应该心中有数了吧。不过总的说来，两个学校都是不错的，不用太纠结。
另外补充一点，不管读NCEA, CIE或IB读欧美，英国或者新西兰的大学都是可以的，制度没问题，关键是看孩子自己的水平。 |

我对这三个课程仍然搞不清楚。
