Will the literacy and numeracy tests be done before or after the conditional offer letter is issued in New Zealand?

The literacy and numeracy tests in New Zealand are usually completed before you receive a conditional offer letter for teaching programs.

These assessments are a key requirement set by the Teaching Council of Aotearoa New Zealand and are part of the initial application process. After you apply, you’ll get a link to book the tests. Completing them early is important, as your results help determine your eligibility for the program.

Once you pass the assessments and meet other criteria, you’ll be considered for a conditional offer letter.
